The Amsterdamse Waterleidingduinen (AWD) (3400 ha) is one of the most beautiful nature areas in The Netherlands. The habitat of the the widest dunes of Holland - with lakes, flows, forests, meadows, shrubs and undergrowth - consists a.o. of fallow deers, roe deers, foxes, horses, cows and cormorants. Except the birds, I have seen them all and took a lot of captures (for the first time in my live, I got the message FULL :p)
In the Amsterdamse Waterduinen are a few fox families. These foxes are everything but wildlife. The moment they spot human beings, they don't run away, but will come to see if there is something to eat for them. Lots of people feeds them, which makes their behaviour completely unnatural. They are easier to capture here than in a zoo :(. Shot at 300 mm (450 mm FF-eq) out of the hand (VR=on). Lucky that this one was sharp.....
Thanks for looking.

Thanks Vika. Yes I'm very pleased with this shot (and the sharpness). I'm looking at the other pictures I've captured there and guess what. There much more good and sharp pictures. So some more wildlife will be published the coming days :p.

you gave this photo of the fox a stance of wariness (or is he just looking for a handout?)

No, not really. Human feed those animals too much and he is searching for opportunities to get some.
