And so it begins… for this year
Posted By Foxy Lady on April 15, 2025
For a variety of reasons — bad weather, too much vegetation, etc. — I’ve struggled to get decent pictures of the local fox cubs for the last couple of years.
But no more! This year, not only have they been visible a little earlier than in some years, but we are reasonably confident they’re actually resident at the bottom of our garden (probably under, or in, the increasingly dilapidated shed), as we’ve seen the vixen taking food back to the den and returning quickly enough that she would not have had time to cross into a different garden.
Our first sighting of a cub was on Saturday evening (12/4) — twilight, so no good pics — but from yesterday onwards we’ve seen three cubs out and about. Their only means of locomotion at the moment seems to be by bouncing everywhere!
These are yesterday’s pics, there will be some from today once I’ve had a chance to process them.
