Wildlife

My main desire with my photography is to further conservation efforts wherever I travel. Often, wildlife works more than any other evidence to capture the love and action of the people that view them. I spent the first twenty-some years of my life without ever having seen a bear or a moose or an otter. I hope that by sharing my encounters with you I will encourage you to seek out the wildlife in your area and do what you can to protect their fragile ecosystems.

I spent more than an hour following this young fox around. After a time he decided I was nothing to worry about and so went about his business. In this frame he is downing a bird, feathers and all.

Or maybe just curious. He spent as much time watching people as they did watching him...

The Vixen
She was a good ways from me at the beginning of the shoot, but steadily hunted her way up a hill, criss-crossing back and forth, always getting closer. She eventually took a route around my position, popped out in the brush behind me and continued up the next hill.
