A mangy urban fox

You looking at me?


Cross the road carefully


Past the neighbours car and through their garden


Up over their wall...
It is simpler than it looks.

There do seem to be a lot of foxes around at the moment.  I saw four of five most days going home last week.  I've also had several very cheeky ones coming down the side of my house, past the back door, and wandering through the garden.  I guess it's a lot of the young foxes born earlier this year.

I wonder what they do when they meet Talisker, and who is the most shocked!  I suspect that both cats and foxes avoid confrontation, preferring to stick to small crunchy things that go squeak. ;D

Good shots, I never seem to have long enough to grab a camera and get a picture.
Actually, it is rocket science.

Round these parts, the foxes hang about long enough for me to photograph them. I do not move fast...

Our old (hard, Northern, but female and very light) cat bopped a big dog fox across his nose, then legged it ;)

He didn't try to retaliate.

I've been informed that he is being fed and treated the other end of the road, and is getting a bit tame.  :thumbsup:

I see more foxes in urban Ealing than in rural Devon.
