TL Back to the wolves and thank you so much in accepting my nice red Fox in previous photo.

Here one of the wolves comes out of bushes .. and since the game ' hide and seek '
is not know to them there must be other reasons.

Obvious of course the never ending search for food and as an extra:
A free ride to the barber shop !

This is an excellent demonstration in how they maintain a good fur/coat
Don't know if you are also among the persons to look to Animal planet now and then..
Often we see Cats and dogs ..totally neglected by there 'deep loving' owners

The fur of cats-Dogs, Horses.. etc NEED to be serviced by us humans
If not?? Scabies ..'smelling ' itching coat .. no gloss and ' lack lustre' hair skins
A shame , really!

Well if they all were set free in nature.. there problems would be solved in an excellent way.

You clearly can see my Wolf coming out a PERFECT hair brussing Tunnel,like your
Ford Mustang at the Car Wash !

Thanks for your wonderful support and if you like to know more of the wolf park ,
see this link. Out of sympathy and respect for the Park organization donations are always welcome:
In my case I 'foster' a Wolf named : Renki
(but I doubt if I will ever see his high school grades / rates)

Bye
Vandana

Hello Missy Bajiker

Good to see one of the excellent wolves back

Have a proverb too:
"I've always said that the best wolf habitat resides in the human heart. You have to leave a little space for them to live."

Love the shot and you know what:
Your perfect note would not look bad in one of my profession magazines:
Hair Style magazines

I see an opening in the market.. send my clients in to the bushes !!! *)*

But all you are saying here Vandana is 100% true
And let me add.. as an old dog owner.. Brush your dog daily !

A better demonstration in what you are telling I x=cannot imagine!

COMPLIMENTS my dear friend

John

Hi Vandana,
a great shot, congrats!

Armel.

Indeed Vandana,

One wonders about some pet-owners when looking at animal planet, but your wolves seem to have the perfect solution. Recently we have seen sharks being serviced by small fish to get rid of everything that otherwise will grow and irritate their skin - lovely to see, as is you wolf visiting the barbers.

Hola Vandana.
Una magnífica imagen donde los tonos son similares.
Estupendo encuadre y genial presentación
Saludos, JL.

thinking to your title (for me "hide and seek".. means only H.Jones).. i have to tell you that this is a wonderful capture, Vandana.. your expirience, in the wolf park, should been so introspective.. full of thoughts and reflections as your notes demonstrate..
it's really nice to look at these wonderful details.. eyes to eyes with this beautiful wolf..
really an incredible and intense shot.. many compliments and thanks..
ciao Marco

Again, interesting and wonderful. Perfect timing to further educate us. Here they look much less feral, probably because he is not in full stance position. I am indeed interested in your park and will definitely explore the information. Just a wonder series, presented with true professionalism.
Warm Regards
Wanda

Hello Vandana!
Another shot of a beautiful wolf!
Nice title and lovely momment!
Best regards!

Beautiful animal portrait, I like his expression--attentive, wild...but in the same time innocent. Those branches offer a very good BG and the sepia approach is very well chosen.

True words, Vandana... pet owners must take care of their pets in a proper way. So... I set a thick thorn brush in the garden, so Dingo can take care of his fur himself ;o))
No, not really, of course: we do brush him, of course.
Nice documentary shot with excellent focus on the eyes. I like the almost monotones here.
