So there I was, in a nice rural quiet spot walking with a big box of Joe's to photograph!

On my way to the spot I like, I saw lots of animals! One that shocked me a lot... But he'll be mentioned last!

On the way I saw numerous buzzards. These guys are everywhere here and are really thriving! Which is great because I love seeing big birds around the place... Talking of big birds I also a heron flying by!

But the last thing I saw, which was a fluke... really pleased me!

I was walking down by the water, with the bridge from the Bridgelayer looking for a nice spot for a picture... I couldn't find one... anyway... I was looking in the field next to the water when something brown caught my eye, Well reddy-brown, almost a shade of orange in the sunlight, it looked like a dog... but it couldn't be so far from anywhere! It was a fox! merely 10 metres away, if not closer! I've never saw one so close in the daylight and it was amazing. It just sat there enjoying the rays! Sadly I left my camera with my Joe's some distance away... but I did have my mobile phone! So I caught footage of the fox on video! Not brilliant, but you could see it! When I went to get the camera I must have scared the fox and it bolted!

Anyway, all that has me wondering... Have any of you fellow Joe fans ever encountered any surprising wildlife while on a shoot?
