Wild Fox - Orchid Board

I just had a scare of the century. About 10pm, I was rolling up the lawn sprinklers after watering. Nice and quiet, just crickets chirping. We live in the middle of the city, but there is no one next to our house and it's quite heavily overgrown and its connected to the park...nontheless, middle of the city. Out of the blue, comes a wild fox running and chasing a bunny rabbit. Went through my driveway, about 10 feet away from me. Bunny escaped, but the fox hung around pouncing right next to our house. Once my blood pressure stabilized it was great fun watching it hunt.

Cute story. They are quite playful critters. Barb

Playful and cute maybe, but also intelligent and effective predators. Keep your cats out of its way.

They would surely get my domestic wabbits that I let wun awound the yard. That would be horrible. The bear have no interest in those wiggley wabbits.

But those fox are so cute and fun to watch play. Barb
