Sleeping out the storm, Ecomuseum (Montreal, QC)


 
BetterPhoto.com Photo Contest Finalist   Sleeping out the storm, Ecomuseum (Montreal, QC)
Sleeping out the storm, Ecomuseum (Montreal, QC)
I was walking through the Ecomuseum park during the horrendous blizzard that dumped almost 40cm of snow on Montreal, mumbling under my breath about the cold, the wind and the snow. Then I saw this beautiful artic fox, cozy as could be with his tail wrapped around his body like a scarf. If this isn't a gift from nature, I don't know what is...
