You can believe me or not, but I actually woke up yesterday and thought, “Today is going to be a special day.” I put my stuff in the Discovery and headed to Foxes wood.
After a fleeting glimpse of the Fallow deer, I turned my attention to the Fox earth I spotted on my last visit. There were signs of recent activity, so I sat down about 20 yards away. Half way through making a brew I saw this cub…
… then another…
… then another…
… then another…
… then another…
… then another…
… and a rat …
Altogether there were 8 foxes; 6 cubs and and 2 adults as far as I could tell. I sat there watching about 20 yards away total enthralled with the cubs and their antics.
I’ve uploaded a video on YouTube. It’s worth watching as there’s a hilarious scene near the end where one of the cubs falls into the den.
I thought it was going to be a special day!
Thanks for the visit.
Pablo.
