  2. This is so beautiful!!!!! Foxes can be a nuisance but I'm always fascinated when I see one and you could even photograph her so close, great.

    1. She is a regular visitor to a friend's garden, Sue. She and her family live on land behind them. Men with dogs have been seen roaming the area which is worrying.

    2. That is very sad, because we all know what "men with dogs" means. Beautiful pictures, rarely see foxes here (that men with dogs thing again, sadly there's a great deal of that sort of behaviour round here).

    3. The police and RSPCA have been informed - it's very sad that some people's mentality is to persecute anything that can't fight back. Put them on an African plain with no means of protection and see how 'brave' they are then.

    1. I used a Panasonic Lumix FZ1000, Jessica. It was on full optical zoom and using burst mode.

  6. She does look fit and well. Many years ago I sat and watched cubs playing in a field, unfortunately I didn't have a camera with me.

    1. We rarely see them around our house, Jo only occasionally crossing the road. We see evidence of them on the plot.

  9. So darn cute - I don't think we have foxes in our area, but there are a lot of coyotes. Not as cute, but good at keeping the rabbit population down.

    1. And I had my camera with me Alain as we had been to a bird of prey display.

  11. A proper fox, beautiful! Our urban foxes don't have that glorious russet coat and can be very noisy at night so not so endearing.
