I was so surprised to find a fox den on the farm! I could hear them yelping and yipping more than usual, so I went on a mission to find out exactly where they were.
I counted 4 or 5 pups and mom & dad . I used a long lens from my yard to get these photos. Mom fox is so diligent watching for potential threats. I didn't think foxes would set up a den so close to the house because of their nature to avoid humans.
In my research on red fox, i found this on https://www.britannica.com/animal/red-fox-mammal
Quote "they adapt very well to human presence, thriving in areas with farmland and woods.">
I enjoyed watching them through my camera and I knew they would be snatching up all those mice that my cat couldn't get to :)
I took this photo a few days later. Again, it was mom fox looking towards the house checking on us humans lol. I haven't seen them since!!
