And onwards to the lynxes. They were a cuddle pile for most of the day. Until it started raining quite a bit, then one of them started moving.
I am a bit unhappy with the lighting for the close ups, but I guess it is to be expected in the rain.
Also, I want to pet the kitty. (2/5)
A photo of the same lynx again, walking diagonally away from the camera (back into the trees), which also shows the lynx's short black-tipped tail.
A photo of the same lynx in the first photo, standing sideways to the camera on the leafy ground, looking curiously at something above and to the right of the frame. This angle of the head shows off the fluffy face quite well.
A photo looking past a branch with only a few leaves hanging on, right at a pile of three or maybe four lynxes (honestly hard to tell) sleeping next to a tree. The heads of the foremost two lynxes are cuddled up next to each other, eyes closed peacefully, another one towards the back seems to have buried its head in the ground a bit, but is also sleeping. Then next to that is a torso of a lynx, but I am honestly unsure which head this belongs to.
A photo of a lynx standing on a ground covered in autumn leaves, fluffy front paws on a large fallen branch, looking straight at the camera with a neutral expression, ears pointed at us. Its ear tufts seem a bit thin.
Also more sleepy were the fopses. Well, we only see one here, AFAIK the other one is way more shy and has seemingly enough places to hide.
Since I was there quite early, I was alone next to the enclosure for a while, so the more outgoing one had not retreated because of the activity yet, right as the morning sun shone through the clouds for a bit.
I also wish y'all a sleep as peaceful as that last face seems to be. (3/5)
A close up shot of the face of the (still sleeping and curled up) red fox, its head rests peacefully on its tail and paws, eyes closed, ears neutral. It looks somewhat serene, if I may say so myself.
A photo of the same red fox, now awake, still partially curled up, its head raised up, revealing the white tip of its tail. It is looking straight at the camera, expression somewhat curious, but also just waking up and taking in the situation, ears not pointed at anything in particular.
A photo of a curled up red fox sleeping cozily next to a tree trunk, bathed in the warm light of the morning sun. It is fully curled up, with its snout resting on the tip of its tail, one of its black paws sticking out beneath the head as well.
