One of my favourite animals, also one I rarely see. We were pleased to see a family out in daylight in Central Kalahari reserve, Botswana.

That is so cool, Ken! I can't remember seeing any images of this species on NPN in recent years but have always been intrigued when they've been highlighted on a nature documentary or the like. This is especially cool in showing multiple foxes in their habitat, and your primary subject in certainly tack-sharp and well-positioned in the frame. It does look like the light was getting a bit "hot" but you've chosen a good angle and techs to work with what you had. A very rare image, I imagine.

One of my favorites from Africa as well, Ken. I like the green setting here. Something different when it comes to a bat-eared fox image, for sure.
