30th March Fox and Magpie

My get pushed partner this week, Sue @suez1e has challenged me to capture close up shots of animals. Had to snap this quickly through the patio window, using my mobile, as I knew by the time I'd fetched my camera, the chance would be lost!
That is so cool that you have a fox right in your yard! And you have magpies ... you must be living in the west somewhere!
A superb capture of them both!!

How amazing to get a shot of a fox. That exceeded my expectations. I am no expert but my only comment is that the eyes are drawn first to the plants in the pots. Personally if I'd wanted the viewer to focus on the fox I would have cropped the picture

@farmreporter we have a whole host of magpies visiting the garden! sometime seven or eight at a time - I think they know we find them amusing - that and the birdseed my husband lavishes on the local bird population!

@suez1e I agree! It is actually already cropped which probably doesn't help the composition greatly as it does focus attention on those flower tubs. Problem is, because taken with mobile, the resolution is so low it pixillates if cropped any further : (
The next one, hopefuly, I'll be able to set up a tripod and DSLR ready and waiting - though I doubt I'll be lucky enough for that fox to wander back round!
