Hunting a fox.......

with a camera. We've had a breeding pair move onto the property lately. I'd been hearing the 'vixen's scream' for a few weeks before I figured out what it was and we've seen one (or more) here and there around the place. I've even seen a baby at the den, but do you think I can get a picture? No. Always having youngest child around probably doesn't help any. She tries, but she just can't be still and quiet for more than a minute at a time.

They've dug their den on an 'island' in the big gully on our place.

They've got 5 entrances/bolt holes to the place. Here's what seems to be the main entrance and you can see the heavy wear on the dirt and plants.


The other holes. This one has some feces around it, but you can't make them out in the pic.

 There's actually two here. The one you can see and another behind the tree root area.

Not fox related, but this rock is near the den. Isn't this kinda cool?
