Nicked-ear has become something of a late night visitor. Most of my recent sightings of her have been fleeting, and after midnight. The opportunities for taking photographs have therefore been more than a little constrained. This evening though, she appeared at a reasonable hour and although she didn't stay for long, she did take a couple of circuits of the garden and paused long enough for a few shots (that is, when she wasn't hiding behind the various shrubs and plants).

Camera note: all tonight's shots were taken with the Sigma 105mm F2.8 EX DG macro lens. I added a lighting filter in Photoshop to the first image.

She really looks nice and healthy :up:
Darko, she's looking great, and her brush is fantastic. The best I've seen of all the foxes that have visited.
Great to see her. It's interesting looking at her coat – she's much more ginger than, say, the Scraggly Vixen.
Shes beautiful 😀 She stars in my latest post words as a pilot! 😆
I wonder if shes been mated yet? if so we can see her cubs hopefully in 3 months yay 😀
Adele, her coat constantly astounds me. I'm so used to foxes showing wear and tear the whole time, but apart from her ear (and a long-standing nick on her left rear leg which appears as a white scar) she seems to have avoided all the problems of the other foxes.
Mark, I just took a look. That's great 😆 Not sure whether she's through with mating yet, but I'm hopeful that if she does bear cubs we'll get to see them. I haven't quite figured out where she spends the nights, though it has to be fairly near.
She certainly is a cooperative and beautiful model!
Lois, when she's on form she's great.
She's so pretty! :queen:
Vulpes, she's certainly blossomed over the year. 🙂
