Up in the Snowy Range, after I met up with @MonikaC in the morning, I went out to do some exploring. My goal was to drive out to a lake on the west side called Dipper. It was a gravel forest service road for a bit, and then it turned into a full fledges 4x4 trail with about 4 inches of snow on it. There was only 1 other set of tire tracks in that snow, so that made for a fun adventure. It's always great when one can turn on the 4x4! 
Before the 4x4 section, as I rounded a bend in the road, there was a fox sitting right in the middle of the road! I stopped and grabbed my Nikon Z8 and the Tamron 50-400mm lens, but before I could get my window rolled down, it darted off into the brush. I sat there for a minute waiting to see if it would come back out. I then drove up the 30 or 40 feet to where it ran into the brush, and no sign of him. I waited for a minute and thought, it's never going to come back out the same way it went, plus I wanted to get to Dipper Lake.
So I kept driving, and maybe 100 feet more I saw the fox on the side of the road, just sitting and watching me. I got about 20 photos taken as it turned it's head, just before it yawned with a large yawn and then like it was bored of me, it ran off.
