The resident fox is actively enlarging its den.

The resident fox has a den under a large heap of branches and garden waste that is piled up to decompose naturally.  The heap has been there for decades and I'm happy to have the fox dig out the beautiful looking compost from the bottom of the heap.  I'll collect it for seed compost.
I suppose that the vixen is enlarging the home for the cubs to follow.

About Me

My Photo
Cuckfield, West Sussex, United Kingdom
In my former working life, I was a biologist who entered commerce in sales and went on to marketing in Milan and to manage sales and manufacturing companies in Holland, Belgium, West Germany, the UK and Ireland, selling Hi-tech diagnostic equipment primarily to hospitals. My five children are from two marriages -- my first wife and son were killed on a bicycle in 1978. Now I share my life and ramble on with Gloria. My interests include Natural History and History. I have a number of illustrated talks on such topics which I enjoy giving.
