Slugging, Fox-style
I understand that "slugging" is a term used in American baseball, but, being a European who finds that sport incomprehensible, I've temporarily hijacked it to describe a hunting episode with the foxes.
This short video shows the Survivor Vixen curiously watching the grass, followed by the Interloper actively eating something - most probably slugs.
I've also included some clips taken over the past few nights which show a variety of garden fox scenes. Of particular interest is the first scene by the conifer tree. Watch how the Fringe Vixen (left) stares hard at the Survivor Vixen. I find it difficult to think of the little Survivor Vixen as a serious rival to the Fringe Vixen, but evidently she is taking no chances.
Right at the end, the Interloper and the Survivor Vixen move their heads in perfect unison!
