Red Fox



Our red fox appeared. Yah! Two weeks ago he was limping and I didn’t know how he’d make it with a hurt front paw. Today he is walking with only a slight limp. Enjoying the birdseed and nuts he looks like a long, lean dog. This is quite a difference from the fast moving blur with a bushy tail we only got a glimpse of last year.

We see lots of foxes of all colors. In the late 1800s through the mid 1900s foxes and mink were raised in this area. Today a strange mix of colors has evolved from the foxes breeding that were left when the fox farms closed.
