Catcher 1 639 Posted June 3, 2009 Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 Took thease photos at work yesterday morning about six.I heard the magpies going nuts and new it must be a fox.It was about 100 yards away and it let me walk to within twenty feet of it and just lay there letting me click away.I only work about eight hundred yards from my home.Lived in the area all my life.Never seen this before.This Fox showed no fear as you can see.So why now ?

lukey 1,621 Posted June 3, 2009 Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 Dont have any pics yet but was standing talking to an old woman last week, she was holding a bag of dog meat just outside her front gate. She was telling me about 4 big fox cubs that live in a hole just next to her garden. Next thing 3 of them walks out of the hole n comes right over to our feet waiting for there grub! They where a wee bit jumpy with me being there but on another day I stood back n watched as she done it and they didnt have a care in the world. Will need to sit with the cam one day n try and get some snaps Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Malt 379 Posted June 3, 2009 Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 There's one comes onto the little estate here most quiet night. You can get within about 15 yards or so of it, and it's not bothered. It's bothered by my little 11" JRT though, I let her out for a piss late one night, and it came out the neighbours garden. She spotted it, and chased it, baying like feck, all the way to the next street! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
