iworkwhippets 12,709 Posted February 17, 2022 Report Share Posted February 17, 2022 Just played the footage back again Ken, one of them seem to have a wound on its back, and if I remember you posted a topic of one of your foxes with a perhaps gunshot wound, if so it looks to be healing well. Three healthy foxes there mate Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ken's Deputy 4,460 Posted February 17, 2022 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2022 IWW; My lot wait. It cracks me up, going out there and counting pairs of eyes. And I know who sits in each spot. Funny as fukk, considering these are completely wild animals who are simply learning off me and each other. It's what they do, naturally, though. They're simply exploiting a Brucey Bonus that's happened into their lives. That one with the wound, I call Amy. The distinguishing mark I know her by having been caused by bad aim, or an abscess. See? Absolute fukking genius! There's a dog amongst them, Bob, who's just fukking ridiculous! Has a head on him like something out of warped imagination! I have a fair to middling fix on a third one too. Cambri vixen. But, that all went to fukk the other night. I put together a ten minute montage of practically contiguous activity. We agree there's four, if not Five different foxes discernable in it! Where's this going? Sid & BB; That's the first squabble in a year of this. Wonder why that is? Time of the year? Number of foxes? And how, really, to respond to it? If it's more / hungrier foxes; Do I put out more food ~ in a line or otherwise? It's like we feed the birds. (Much to the disgust of the Germans) I'll see your sunflower hearts, for the goldies. And I'll raise you raisins, for the locust like swarms of starlings they'll attract. Where do we draw the line? There's no book been written on this, see? No experts to turn to. But, it's fun, finding out for ourselves And now, I have thirty odd more bursts of footage, from last night, to sit and look through! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
iworkwhippets 12,709 Posted February 17, 2022 Report Share Posted February 17, 2022 So i was right in my thinking, Amy was the fox with the wound you put up previous, seems to be healing ok, i enjoy your clips of the foxes ken, and i enjoy my middle of the night encounters with my lot, i went out last night, and im sure they were waiting for me, or should i say what i had for them, anyways keep the clips coming i enjoy them, nice and clear footage Quote Link to post Share on other sites
