Tongue Twister !

By Maiwand
The red Fox ( vulpes vulpes )
Could not resist this shot of the fox during at shoot at the BWC. He opened his mouth to yawn and curled his tongue in the most extraordinary way. Looks more like a coat hanger or perhaps a hat stand.GrinGrin Dont think he would be too happy about it though.
I like him and I hope that you may too.
I am so grateful for the very generous response shown to Fork 'Andle GSW. I do appreciate it.

Ron

You were ready and waiting to capture the moment so well, Ron. Such fine detail captured, and so well exposed given that the head seems to be in shadow with a bright b/g.
