Red Fox

O’ Wily One O’ Wily One from whence you come Your presence you do share From snowy mist your form does twist Appear you from thin air What do you seek with eager peek Perhaps a murine meal? While on the stalk your gestures talk You’re not above the steal So carry on, O’ Wily One
You have a role to play
Your presence brings a mix of things And rodents at the bay. ~ Poem and Red Fox capture, O’ Wily One © Jerry L. Ferrara

A Big Stretch Curled up on the snow in a fuzzy carroty ball, the Red Fox lay resting … sleeping the sleep of a Red Fox, dreaming vulpine dreams … all about mousie cuisines. At some point the urge to wake took hold and the mind chimeras washed away. The canine arose but before trotting into the ice-clad ‘scape, it executed a signature posture … a comfort move … a big stretch. ~ Anecdote and Red Fox capture, A Big Stretch © Jerry L. Ferrara
