Silver Fox, Renard Argenté, Zorro Plateado / Vulpes Vulpes

            This Silver fox and I shared the same interest; I was there to photograph birds, he was there to eat them. He was very comfortable with the space we shared. It's almost like he was using me as a distraction. He would stalk, run up the terrain to propel himself and catch birds in midair with more skills than any cat I have ever seen. I was so stunned and amazed, I didn't manage to capture the event. 

"Though it is a fact not many people are aware of, the silver fox is actually the exact same species as the red fox, Vulpes vulpes. It gets its name from its fur coloration, which ranges from a bold silver to almost completely black. Like red foxes, silver foxes’ eyes also take on a golden yellow color as they mature. The weight and length of these foxes can range greatly depending upon their respective geographic locations. On average, as adults they weigh  5 to 7 kilograms (11 to 15 pounds), their length from head to tail can reach up to 1 meter(40 inches)  long."
