On Monday, the PM went outside to hang some washing when she met the fox crossing the yard. The fox looked at the PM and trotted into the berm. The PM thought she heard some different sounds and went to take a closer look.
There in the berm were two fox kits, running among the overgrown bushes, jumping and rolling. She then saw the mother fox run out to the field. The PM watched from inside and saw the fox come back with a mouse. It seems like she is using the berm in our front yard as a little daycare, leaving the kits safely there while she hunts for their meals. She was there again in the evening and the following morning.
When the mama fox takes a break, she likes to stand by the bank facing our front windows in the morning sun.
This is the shot from our window. 
The PM zoomed in to get a closer look, sorry for the fuzziness.
I sit on the ledge and watch the wild ones frolic. She looks at me and I look at her and purr.

What wonderful photos of the mother and her family.
A truly amazing group of photos of a beautiful little family... how
blessed you are to be able to watch them all...
Beautiful little ones! We have raccoons at the swamp, but no fox. So cute!
How beautiful! Goldie seems to like them too
So so so cute!!! Those kits are just plain adorable!
We have a brown fox that comes by every night to eat the squirrel food that falls out of the feeder or the food we leave out for neighborhood kitties. Mom named him Leroy Brown.
Wow, they are amazing! I can see why you'd need to stay inside when they are around! Those little kits are adorable.
What a sweet little foxy family. Mum has only seen foxes when she lived in London, and you would see ones foraging along railway tracks. We don't have any in New Zealand.
We hope that the babies can grow up safe and strong.
what wonderful pictures! Mama Fox looks rather lean, but her babies certainly look plump and healthy. She's a smart vixen to park her babies in the berm while she hunts...and of course she's got a big ginger kitty watching over them.
#1 says she's had foxes under her shed on the Island and just loves them! Great pics!
These are fantastic pictures -- I'm going to direct my Mom here because she would really like these. My mom and dad live out in the country and have all sorts of wildlife too! Nice of you to provide a fox daycare service!!
You have a very talented photographer human. Those baby foxes looks very cute.
Oh my gosh, how lucky you are to get to see that! Thanks for sharing.
