Sleepy Fox in a Walnut Shell

A tiny fox curls up tight inside a walnut shell, nose tucked close to her bushy tail. Her eyes stay shut, lost in a cozy nap while her small paws peek out just enough to see. Soft fur lines every curve and her ears perk gently, like she's listening for woodland sounds even as she sleeps.

The walnut shell opens like a secret hideout, both halves cradling the fox and keeping her snug. Gentle lines mark the shell’s smooth pattern, and the whole scene feels quiet and safe, as if the forest paused just for this moment.

Fun Fact!

A Gray Fox has semi-retractable claws, a bit like a cat's, which help it grip tree bark when climbing.
