    Brilliant photos Woo:thku: for sharing them with us and I bet he enjoyed that tomato:D

    Looking through your photos again make me wonder how men with dogs and horses could ever in the past think of hunting down and destroying such a magnificant creature:( As I have said before you are so lucky to have them in your garden.All we get round us is either Red Kites or Buzzards though I doubt if any of them would land in my garden:D

    Just found your foxy pics Woo. Brilliant - really good captures! You lucky chap to have them so close to you. Despite living out here in the sticks we very seldom see one and never in the village.

    Edit - Just had a browse back through all the ones I hadn't seen. If you keep going with the same quality and variety you've already got you should end up with enough to to make an "Urban Fox Calendar" to publish. Maybe worth thinking about.

    Beautiful as always Woo.

    Do you hear much noise from the foxes? When we had some outside our house (they lived on some wasteland which has since been built on sadly) the vixen made terrific noise calling her cubs into line! It sounded like someone screaming :cnfs:

    The screaming can also be mating. Not to dwell too much on it, but male foxes need to remain inside a vixen for a while afterwards...and he has barbs on his equipment...

    Well, you'd scream as well, wouldn't you??
