Red Fox - Vulpes vulpes

Canon 800mm f6.3 1/125th @ iso400
Turning right as I walked out of the carpark and onto the lane which leads to the Kingfisher venue - there was a young fox walking towards me.
Having only the 800mm attached to the MKIV body with it's one 1.3 crop factor I was not equipped photographically for such a close encounter with such a relatively large animal.
The fox was hesitant and I lay down to grab what turned out only to be a couple of shots as the fox went into the undergrowth.
Getting myself up off the road I made my way to the Kingfishers
