Dad Elf has become much more territorial towards juvenile dog fox Thomas since his cubs have started to emerge from the den. There are lots of shouting matches and foxtrots, always initiated by Elf. Thomas submits and Elf's dominance is asserted without the need for a serious

Then there were 5! 🦊🦊🦊🦊🦊 How beautiful are they?! Eliza and Elf are doing a great job rearing their 5 cubs with mummy nursing them up to 8 times in 24 hours and dad bringing solid food back to the den. I love how watchful mum is whilst nursing her vulnerable cubs and

A penny for his thoughts. 🤔 Fox dad Elf is surveying his kingdom from his vantage point on top of the cemetery wall. You can see his nose in action, picking up the scents of dogs and other foxes in the area and computing the information. Maybe he is also picking up food scents

Tony would have been 56 today. I can't believe he has been gone for almost 2 years and miss him deeply every single day.  He was my right-hand man, fellow fox guardian, best friend, partner, and love of my life. I miss his sharp analytical mind, wicked sense of humour,

These little fox cubs may look similar, but their personalities are all completely different. The 3 most curious siblings came out of the den for a rain check. One is emerging as a clear leader, standing their ground and "guarding" the den whilst their siblings seek comfort and

Meet Willow, a hard-working fox mum. Once she nursed her cubs, she loves nothing more than taking long snoozes on the garden table that is glowing with warmth from the spring sun. 🦊 She is one of the residents who live in my friend's garden. Willow peacefully coexists with

Mummy Eliza is a wise fox mum.😍 She moved her cubs into a more obscured den where they will be much safer. Currently, the cubs are only allowed out for short periods of time, under strict parental supervision. It is such a joy to see them all looking well. They have my dedicated

📢A fascinating foxtrot between dominant fox Elf and subservient juvenile Thomas. They were refereed by a crow. The dispute ended when Elf's partner Eliza had enough of the racket and broke the quarreling foxes up. Her cubs had only just dozed off, so she was not amused. 😂 I

I love you so much I could eat you!!😍😋 In a litter of fox cubs often pairs emerge that bond closely and may explore the world together. They still live independent lives but often reconnect for social play or grooming. In some cases, juvenile foxes may help to rear their

Elf is a great fox dad! 😍 He is tirelessly playing with his little ones to school them and to make them stronger and more agile. It may look rough, but he is actually gentle whilst teaching them how to get out of a neck hold, when pinned down to the ground by a challenger...

Babybelle has been digging like crazy in the last few days to get her secondary den in my garden ready for her cubs. They now have a cozy and safe hidey hole where they can escape from the elements or potential predators. So far only Strawberry, the first cub that is allowed to

Look at Elfie's face!😂 He clearly thinks I am nuts! Why, oh, why would I not look at him when he is right there?! He does not care that the batteries on the trail cameras need changing but wants some attention from his guardian. 🦊He loves to be spoken to in a soft voice. It

This is my love letter to a very special fox, beautiful Elf. He has a very serious face and deep, knowing eyes that have seen a lot. I have grown in credibly fond of him since he first came into my life badly injured last December. I think he knows that the food I gave him

Shocking: This newbie fox appeared in my garden last night. To me, the ring of missing fur around the neck and torn ear look like this could have been inflicted by a snare and the fox breaking free from it a while ago. Imagine the fear this fox must have felt, whilst being

It is extremely worrying that somebody is snaring foxes again locally in Worthing, most likely with illegal home-made wires snares. It brings back memories of poor Lucky who got snared twice in a row and needed 2 surgeries to have the wire removed from his neck. I did a film

This The Guardian article makes my blood boil. 1. It calls foxes "pests" that cause an "infestation" when foxes aren't legally classified as "vermin" in the UK. Foxes are indigenous wildlife NOT vermin and play an important role in the ecosystem. 2. To create a wildlife garden in

Check out this brilliant footage of little foxy gardeners having the time of their life! 😂I am glad that Denis who sent the footage sees the funny side of the fox behaviour. It may be destructive to us but for them it is exploration, play and practicing their pounces.

At least we are safe here!" 😁 Yesterday's discussion about the biased article in the The Guardian about the foxes that moved into the rooftop garden at the new @googleuk building reminded me of this montage. My late partner Tony and I created it years ago as a foxy greeting
