Foxes

 I see a lot of foxes. They have become urbanised and actually quite bold about being seen in the open. That worries me a bit. A wild animal should be more shy.

I keep an eye on them and especially a family of them that live where I have some work. This family have white flashes on the tips of their tails. Last year the poor things were terribly thin and their coats were sparse and dull. I've seen two of them this week and I'm happy to say that they look sleek and in good condition. 

Winter is hard for the wild ones. I would like to get some photos of them but I only see them when I'm out walking a client's dog and don't usually have my phone with me. My coat pockets don't take a mobile phone comfortably.
