Underwater capture of the fox drinking water from the plunge pool. Her tongue is so long, because it is distorted by water by an optical illusion. Hungary, Apr. 16, 2021.
The vixen usually showed up four or five times a night, and I noticed that it would drink water on the third occasion. Presumably, it had eaten enough from the neighbourhood and got thirsty. I used a cable remote release and a constant light source. This picture was taken with an underwater camera.
Photo story of about a young vixen living on the border of two habitats with rarely seen, stealthy behavior.
For 8 months, nearly every night I spent sitting at the window of my cottage house in the middle of the forest, where wild animals live almost like the village’s neighbors. This village is home to a healthy urban fox population with dozen of specimens. The red fox is an 'edge species', which means they naturally occur at the borders between two habitats. Among the red foxes, one regularly appeared in the village and in my yard.
The young vixen would appear in the village after dusk, circle it for an hour and a half, then appears in my yard several times. I observed her movements and behavior from the darkened room and took the exposure remotely to capture interesting, covert, never-before-seen behavior. We build a distant, but subtle relationship, and I named her Roxy. During the nights I set the lights in advance, like in a studio, and waited for my heroine to enter the scene. She always surprised me, showing new sides of her personality. I had to solve many technical, theoretical, and physical challenges. At the time of lockdown, both sides were forced to adjust. Man to the wilds of the forest, and animals to the human environment.
