Although the cubs have been entirely capable of eating solid food for quite a while now, and indeed of choosing their own food from what’s put out for them to eat… or play with… sometimes, only the Milk Bank of Mum will do. Apparently fox cubs may still suckle up to twelve or fourteen weeks […]

And no, we’re not talking about children here… have a couple of photos of a fox just trying to get those last few morsels off his/her muzzle…

You remember the sun, don’t you? It was that thing in the sky that we saw at the end of May and which vanished almost immediately we hit June. Ah well — have some photos of foxes in the sun to make up for it. These are from 20th May and, as usual, click on […]

The 19th May was obviously a bumper day for photos — below is the second half of that day’s haul. The cubs were feeling particularly frisky….

Well, perhaps not quite; the cats still stroll around earlier on in the day, before the foxes come out for their constitutional around 2.15 pm. They’re quite regular about that; emerge and lounge around on the lawn for a while, sunbathe, possibly indulge in a little chasing one another round the pond, and then head […]

The plus point of warmer weather and more active foxes: yay, foxes! The minus points of warmer weather and more active foxes: more media to sort through and catalogue. To give you an example, when I swapped out the data card from Foxcam this morning, it had 153 new items on it. Even accounting for […]

Usually, when I’ve put down food for the foxes, things happen in the following order: The local bird life descends to grab what they can before the foxes get to it. This usually includes a couple of pigeons (after the peanuts), a magpie or two (after whatever they can get, frankly), and at least one […]

The foxes have been less visible than usual over the last day or two (just as I announced this blog to the world, of course; timed for maximum awkwardness). Possibly they’ve just been put off by the chilly weather; maybe the cats are giving them some aggro; perhaps the cubs are getting to that awkward […]

To my surprise, the cubs were on the early turn today; out and about in the garden around 9am, which is most unusual for them. There was a certain amount of rough and tumble, and then one of the cubs took it upon him or herself to stalk a pigeon, which was attempting to finish […]

I don’t know what the dandelions in my garden have done to deserve it, but the foxes suddenly seem very interested in them! (All right, perhaps it’s because the dandelions concerned were in the middle of the food I’d put out for the foxes.) Also, photographic evidence that at least one of our cats is […]
