Curious young arctic fox on Nipisat island

During my visit of the island of Nipisat, I found out that in the remains of the buildings still someone is living.

Turned out that it was turned in to a den for arctic foxes. And there was still a young one around. Which was not to scared of me, quit curious even, so she allowed me to come close and take some really nice pictures.

After my walk around I returned to the den and managed to sneak up on the fox and catch it sleeping, only it woke up just before I could take a picture. But still she did not ran away and was even posing for some more nice pictures.

Enjoy

Who is hidding there?

Ah now I see

Who is check in who out?

The fox den, in the old remains of the settlement

Sleeping

Damm flees

Stretching out after a nap

Hidding again

One last look

Colors of Greenland

During the fishing trip, we came by the Island of Nipisat. Here the Dutch had a whaling station during around 1720. As you can see on the pictures there are still remains of the old settlements, including a slipway and the remains of some houses. Peter droppes me off here to have a walk around the place. Which was really nice.
Lots of things to see and beautiful colors all around. 

Enjoy the pictures and also enjoy the colors of Greenland.
