The foxes are nothing if not inventive, and this young fox decided that the best place to be was on top of a group of garden sacks. He was caching some food in one of the bags, presumably on the basis that this is one hiding place his siblings might miss.
His ear still looks a bit nasty. I don’t think it’s particularly getting worse and it isn’t bothering him too much, but I’m keeping a watchful eye.
Camera note: all shots taken with the Canon 7D and EF 24-105 F4L IS USM lens.

Some foxes just seem to have chronic ear problems, unfortunately.
