Just caught this fox nabbing this American grey squirrel...Well he should have stayed at home..The quality's a bit iffy as it was a snapshot using a 2x converter on a Tamron 70-200mm f/2.8...

You must have been quick to catch this action. Nice and rare shot Richie.

If practice makes perfect and nobody is perfect, then why practice?

That squirrel was a long ways from home Count B. He was probably too tired to run. It is the way of things. Capture is great even if the quality is somewhat iffy to quote you.

Nice shot! I'd be careful Sir Richie....by the look in his eyes he might drop that squirrel and come after you:))

It may not be perfect, but that is an awesome shot! It is a rare capture considering these guys are most active at night. (I think) His face and his prize are pretty clear. He is beautiful..

It could be that the fox just had a sore throat and asked the squirrel to have a look. Nice capture, Richie! You caught him at just the right moment.
