Relaxing At The Den

Though it doesn't happen often enough, once in a while a wild subject that I'm photographing (usually after a ridiculously long amount of time sitting completely still) will feel safe enough to approach, lie down and relax near me. Even rarer than that, at times (such as this one) a critter will actually fall asleep right next to me.
Nothing fancy here, just a very relaxed young fox resting outside of the den. He'd been napping, and lifted his head when he heard mom approaching with dinner.
