More Daytime Foxes Photo and video special

After the beautiful sunny bank holiday, it was drizzle and grey skies today. The plus side of that is that it gives me the excuse to post a few more photos from the weekend, plus some video from the trail camera. Fox cubs galore!

And now the video. The vixen is looking 'tired', but believe me she's been working hard looking after the brood.

    Really nice, Words … it's such a treat to see them in daylight. I see mom is shedding her Winter coat.

    "Come, love, and in the fire of Spring
    Your Winter garment of Repentance fling!
    "

    Sorry … these things pop into my head.

    The third photo down looks like Khamsin when she is 'hunting' Chiara :knight:

    They seem to have made themselves very at home 🙂

    Adele, they certainly aren't shy about being out in the garden. 🙂

    dW, thanks! Daylight make such a difference, and I can use the AI focusing and track everything. At night I use one-shot focusing and rely on the red beam from the flash to sort things out. Much slower and more awkward for action.
