My lunchtime visitor


Another big surprise.  I was just getting lunch today when I glanced out of the kitchen window to see a fox strolling around the garden.  Most of the cameras were set up for the sparrowhawk but I managed to grab one and fire off a few photos.  The lens was 300mm and the fox was a bit too close at times.  It had quick sniff around under the bird feeders and then trotted off.  You can see it has a nasty facial wound, very probably inflicted during a fight with a rival.  I hope it heals OK and it may enable me to identify this one again if it comes to the back door at night.  It certainly seemed to know its way around.
