Jeff and Debbie Richards gave Tami some awesome wildlife photos this week . . .

Here’s an adult eagle with its baby

Right now, the baby eagle is all over the lake, so he’s hard to find.  Especially since he blends into the trees so well.

Here’s a great shot of a turtle sunning himself

Can you see the dragonfly sunning himself on the turtle’s back?

And here are the fox pictures I promised.  This little guy came trotting through the sites in the middle of the quiet week, right by Jeff and Debbie’s camper

He made his way to the edge of the volleyball court and laid in the sun.

Kind of cute, huh?

    Oh boy. He does look like his left leg may be bothering him. I don’t know much about foxes..how are they around people? Do they go the other way or should we!!!

    Any idea where he is living? I don’t remember hearing about fox being around the campground over the years. Don’t you usually see one or 2 in the winter?

    This is interesting.

    The fox will go the other way, I’m sure. Mostly, people see him in the driveway, before he jumps out of sight. No one saw him in the campground itself until after Labor Day, and even now, we’re only seeing him during the week at the quiet end of the campground.

    Last winter was the first time we’d seen a fox. I only see one at a time, and very infrequently. I think it was a harsh winter, with all the snow, so he was staking out the bird feeder for the squirrels.
