I was sitting in the kitchen chatting to a friend when something moved quickly in the corner of my vision. I turned and saw two fox cubs chasing each other across the lawn.
They ran, jumped, tussled...
...then drank some water from the birds' saucer.
Then they scooted through the bushes...
...and suddenly a lone cub that looked smaller and scruffier sauntered across the deck, stared at us through the glass and trotted off. I think this may be the runt, the one that scratched on the patio door the other night to try and get Flad to play. He was sleeping on the mat on the other side of the door. So my theory is that the two larger ones have teamed up and the runt gets left out. Aaah!
Sorry about the poor quality of the photos. It was nearly 9pm and they were at least 70 feet away. Oh, for a paparazzi lens!

Aww. Way too cute, A.H. ;)
You get the most amazing shots of wildlife there... just love your fox photos. :)
It must be sooo nice living in an area like that. Sucks being so urban sometimes. Just birds and tree rats around here... oh and some human "wild life" too. lol
Thanks for sharing these!
There is a neglected garden next door (the house owner is 97!) and a field at the bottom, though were are very close to a busy main road. It's a little oasis.
