Sounkyo Gorge today

This morning it was 13°C。
It was very chilly.
Deep fog envelops Sounkyo gorge.
Fresh green is so beautiful.

The picture is “Little foxes”.
When driving in forest road, they ran out into the road.
They drifted for their food.
They approached with curiosity.
If their parent fox finds this scene, she might abandon her nest.
We looked around and found no fox there.
We took photos.
Little foxes looks healthy.
Their face and bodies are getting young foxes.
