Foxy Lady | October 29, 2010
A few weeks ago I was keeping an eye on one of the local foxes as he appeared to be limping. However, the limp didn’t appear to be stopping him practising his pouncing on (the remains of) one of the toys they had brought into the garden…

The nights are drawing in, the temperature is dropping, and that makes a more-or-less-regular food source look more attractive to foxes… even those foxes who are new to the area. I looked out of the window one afternoon a week or so back and saw this: Yes, okay, a fox on the lawn, not all […]

I’ve never had (or wanted) to feed my foxes jam sandwiches, but apparently it is a well-known way of getting them to take a mange remedy, should one be needed. When our locals were younger, they seemed quite happy to eat bread — there are videos of ours on YouTube hunting down and making off […]

As I mentioned, the weather finally improved enough yesterday that I could take some more video of one of the foxes in daylight. Took a while to upload, as it’s almost seven minutes long, but here — enjoy 😉

Well, that was all right, wasn’t it? … wasn’t it? I think I came off significantly better than Steve the fox-exterminator who did not wish to have his face on camera, and the footage they had from me of the fox in my garden looked good. I’ve been trying to get some more video footage […]

You are all going to watch Countryfile later, aren’t you? Jolly good.

All of the Foxcam footage over the last couple of days seems to have involved very damp foxes. I don’t think they like the rain, and they definitely don’t seem to want to come out in daylight when it’s raining! Unfortunately the fox who rather elegantly shook itself on camera did so right at the […]

I was really hoping to get some more HD video footage of the foxes to show you, for reasons which will become apparent in a couple of days’ time, but the weather — and indeed the foxes — really haven’t been cooperating. Yesterday was sunny but the foxes didn’t want to show their faces in […]

No photos for this one, and perhaps you should be thankful… Those of you with cats and dogs will doubtless have had the joy of clearing up after your pets when they’ve decided to eat some grass and then vomited. I hadn’t realised that foxes would do the same thing, but I suppose it makes […]
