Wash Day Helper

 

This is another early sequence, taken again in 2006 when we had some very confident young foxes visiting the garden. They would often hang out with us during the afternoon, including this youngster who was fascinated with the regular ritual of hanging out the washing.

To be fair, this is heavy work for one so young, and the cub soon beat a retreat to the bar.


We did a good job

But finally, the washing was all hung out, and
we congratulated ourselves on a job well done.

And as all sensible foxes do after a bit of hard graft,
it’s time for a nap.

Later… the final task all complete.
