Clare saw a fox in our backyard this morning. We knew they were around, Dean and Andrew saw one in the front yard one night last fall, but it's always exciting to see something unusual.
It's sad the foxes have moved into the suburbs from the surrounding area - there are fewer miles of open country between cities these days, the critters need to go somewhere. Foxes seem to have adapted to suburban life. My friend, Joan, had an entire fox family living in her backyard a couple of years ago.
This morning's sighting made me think of that British hymn, All Things Bright and Beautiful. I loved the James Herriot books and TV series that took their titles from that hymn, but that's a story for a blog not yet begun.
Watch a video containing the hymn mentioned above.

I was at a potluck last night and someone was mentioning a fox that hangs around with their cats, which I would find a bit worrying. She (Wilma) feeds the fox cat food sandwiches, so maybe it thinks it's one of the cats now.
