  Rich Lo

  A fox peeks out of his den at a white forest.

  All is silent.

  A buck stands hidden by the trees.

  A great horned owl sits on a nearby branch.

  The fox climbs out of his den.

  He stops to watch squirrels eat.

  He passes mice foraging for seeds beneath the snow.

  The fox reaches a stream where he takes a cold drink.

  A family of mallard ducks swims by.

  Across the stream, river otters rest on a rock.

  Suddenly the earth trembles.

  The fox walks quietly past the moose.

  His thirst quenched, the fox heads home.

  He passes rabbits hiding in a hollow log.

  Chattering crows greet the fox outside his den.

  After the snowfall.
