It’s so hard getting these humans to stay still . . .

- By Tom Witherow

WILDLIFE photograph­y normally involves the animal being in front of the camera and the photograph­er behind it.

This fox, however, had other ideas. Balancing a careful paw on the tripod, it appeared to look through the viewfinder.

The animal is a frequent visitor to the garden of wildlife photograph­er Giedrius Stakauskas in Orpington, South-East London.

The 42-year-old has even found himself on the other end of the lens as the inquisitiv­e animal investigat­ed his camera.

Mr Stakauskas, who calls the fox Paw because of a white mark on one paw, said he had been photograph­ing him for a couple of years. ‘Paw became so relaxed he even used to fall asleep in front of the camera,’ he said.
