Fox Tales... 3

The little chaps are starting to look a bit more adult. Although they are naturally wary, they'll sit at a distance and watch.
Occasionally venturing closer in the hope that there will be something tasty in the off.



Tonight was their lucky night. Yummy stuff on a spoon...


I was sure to keep my fingers well clear after a previous incident where they were innocently mistaken for food, resulting in a painful bite that took a long time to heal. They are normally so gentle, taking food from your hand with unsurpassed politeness... accidents happen, teeth are sharp!


Just to make sure that even the shy ones got at least something, a few handfuls of dog biscuits were thrown into the undergrowth. Contented crunching echoed through the still darkness...
