The foxes are back ...

For those familiar with the ongoing multi-generational dynastic fox sun lounge that is my lawn (very loose definition), you may be pleased to know that it's still in use. There have been a couple of times that I've got home to spy small orange sunbathers, but yesterday I had a camera feasibly nearby. As a result, some more fox photos ...











There are a few more on this gallery, and quite a few more in the overall gallery folder for those who want to revisit them.

(I'm also wondering if I should replace my second-hand-twenty-years-ago 70-300mm lens (I bought it back when I had a 35mm Canon EOS body as a teenager) - it doesn't so much suffer from zoom creep as zoom dash, and the focus is sometimes a little soft - although it might also just be that it could do with an intensive clean.)

They don't make 'em quite like that, definitely - it's a 70-300mm MkI - last time I looked at similar they were up to the MkIII. And I think even that's been replaced by the 70-300mm with image stabilisation now. I don't use it very often, so not really worth getting a new lens, but yes, I might see about having it serviced.
