As November ends…

The foxes are wily beasts, and as November reaches its close they are becoming ever more secretive in their movement. This reduction in fox visibility mirrors events of last year as the foxes emerge later into the night and focus their attention on the imminent breeding season.

Meanwhile we still have frogs active in the pond (unseasonably warm weather), and occasional butterflies still venture into the garden. The leaves have finally fallen from the trees. Squirrels abound, storing up food for the winter that probably won't arrive, and pied wagtails are heavily in evidence (but incredibly difficult to photograph).

    Such a fat little squirrel. As soon as I get a digital camera I am going to photograph the SKINNY squirrels we have in Florida. They look like starving cousins when compared to your fine friend in the photo!

    As always, I love your photos!

    :heart:

    Pied wagtails belong to that exclusive class of wildlife that is fairly easy to see ridiculously hard to photograph. I think this is a great picture of one, though 🙂

    Would you believe, when I was putting together my "ecoweb" page of local wildlife, one of the species that caused me the most grief was the humble starling :eyes:
