Back to some fox news
Yes, that's definitely fox news, *not* Fox News, thankyou very much.
The chief point of note is that the Interloper has developed a bad limp in his right hind leg. He was sighted during the daytime in the garden looking wet and miserable a few days back. As I write this, he is curled up beside the conifer tree.
I wonder if he has finally been clipped by a car. An attack by another fox or a cat would not explain the wetness of his fur and his latest injuries do not seem consistant with a fight anyway. He is still mobile, but I hope it is just a strain. A broken leg on top of blindness in one eye would be tough to cope with.
The Fringe Vixen has grown the most enormous brush. She has taken to stretching herself out on her chest in the long grass on the mound. Maybe she likes the feel of fresh grass on her stomach, who knows. She looks well, as do the Old Dogfox and the Survivor Vixen.
I will get some more photos of them online soon.
One other point - I saw a fox from the train tonight while travelling home from my job in London. It wasn't a particularly remarkable sighting but it does go to show that wildlife can be seen in any situation, as long as you're prepared to look for it. A few years back, I was on a Greyhound bus in rural Canada and saw a wolf - but almost everyone else missed it, because they were dozing or buried in a book!
