The View

The View

Our wild friends have been keeping us busy.

The majority of the time you can find us like this.


Or like this.


Watching critters like this


and this


or this.



We leave you with this video of the vixen and the two kits. They love our mulch pile in the front yard and are normally frolicking there in the early morning and evening. The video shows Mom fox bringing over some *breakfast* for the kits. They seem to like to have a little play before they eat!



The tune is The Valley Town by Canadian Alt. country/folk rock band Elliott Brood. This is the PM's favorite song right now and we thought it suited those leaping foxes!

What fun to see the kits playing. Where our Mom used to live, there was a fox and she had four babies and they would come out and play too. It was so much fun.
Great video. You kitties do have so good wild life TV.
Have a great week end.

You have a very entertaining view. Don't get out and mix it up with the foxes, though.

What interesting wildlife you have around your home! I don't have anything half as exotic.

Just make sure you don't become food to them though.

Forever Foster said...

The foxes are SO cute! Have you kitties been practicing your David Attenborough impressions? Because you could make a great wildlife show from your very own window! :)

Hannah and Lucy said...

We loved watching the fox cubs playing - they were very lively. You have great views from your windows - we wish we did.

Keiko said...

That is a wonderful place to watch the foxes!
It's lovely to see them having fun! We have foxes around our place too, but they're considered pests in our country as they're introduced animals :(

Cory said...

Now that's entertainment!!!

Those foxes are a joy to watch...but I sure wouldn't want to tangle with them!

Quill and Greyson said...

Miss Lizzy said...

Hi friends! You have quite a show to watch out your windows! LOVED the fox video -- exquisite pictures...will have to send my mom over to see them. Cool music too!
Hope you all are well -- we are hanging in there, doing lots of ORGANIZING and cleaning (the porch, finally), prompted by BB's birthday party sleepover, which is tomorrow. I'm sure it will be exhausting! Take Care! Your friends at the Rose Jugglers

Just Ducky said...

Wow, such good pictures and video of the foxes. Love to see them play. We couldn't get any video of our raccoons the other night, too dark.
