A meeting with a fox.

A cold morning and I nearly stayed in bed, glad I made myself go.
Spotted something moving down the edge of the field.
We looked at each other for a while and the fox walked out into the field glancing over at me.

Then it came back to my edge of the field and started walking back towards me.Times like this I'm glad of the camouflage gear I wear.

I was standing quite close to a ditch where I've photographed brown rats before an the fox went there to check it out.

Moving back into the field it walked past me and went into a wild patch of field and spent the morning hunting in that patch.

Eating his catch.

Glad I made the effort to get up and go out this was a brilliant morning.

Mouse hole project

Yesterday I spotted what looks like a well used set of holes at the base of a tree.
There seems to be a lot of scree around the bottom of the hole and what looks like a path from the holes around the tree going left to right.

I'll be back with sliced apple etc. to see if i can get anything to come out.

I've been looking at wheat fields to try and see a mouse, yesterday one ran across the path in front of me.
