Sleeping Fox (Photo Special)

Today has proved to be something of a fox-fest. Shutterbug appeared in the garden this morning, and promptly settled down for a lengthy nap, some 40 minutes or so. Plenty of time for me to capture him on camera (I've got some video too, but haven't edited any of it yet). So here are just a few shots of a sleeping fox.

And if that wasn't enough, tonight (after a typical Bank Holiday downpour) two of the cubs appeared in the garden. I haven't yet had time to sort through the photos properly but here's a taster. More of these tomorrow.

    They certainly seem at ease; you've made your garden into a place that feels "safe" to them.

    :zzz: He looks very content. Probably because at that moment the cubs weren't disturbing his slumbers :right:

    Sami, he's such a good fox. The cubs are cute too (of course).
