A couple of older shots of two foxes. Lovely little animals ☺️☺️

The one on the left is a nice portrait, the one on the right was cautiously giving me the side eye (from its one good eye) before moving along on its business 🦊🦊🦊

A very close-up side portrait of a Heron with its crest up. Looks like he means business 😊

This shot is an old one from back in 2022, but I'm still blown away by it. I was about 9 feet away from him (minimum focus distance of the lens) which enabled me to capture all this detail.

Date Taken: 15th September 2022.

It's been a while since I've done any macro photography. I brought my macro lens out last night while waiting for the foxes (they didn't show).

I'm quite happy with this bee feeding shot I got, bees are one of my favourite macro subjects :)
