Like clockwork...New kits oon the block.
 
Well, every year 'bout this time I get the family of fox kits move in under my shed for a week or so. I just happened to mention to my wife it was about time they showed up. Low and behold I look out the window just now, and there they were. By the time I grabbed the camera there was only one still out and it is getting too dark.....But I got one good pic at least. I'll try to get more as they appear. I wonder how many there are this year?:D

Here is a short video I got of three of them playing this morning. I counted 4. Last year there were 5 so One might be hiding still. One thing about them, they are out playing and in a flash they are all done and back under the shed, sleeping for the day.....:D

They are so cute! Too bad they have to grow up and I have to worry about them getting my dogs.

Fox are great.
 
I’ve never heard of them going after dogs though.
We see them all the time in Maine and last fall had one in my back yard.
I’d love to have a family of foxes in the area.

Maybe they don't???? But I sure wouldn't like to have my 3 1/2 lb little girl get in front of a fox. The eagle scares me enough.

I thought you meant a dog not a Gerbil :D
Yes I'd be worried to even from a hawk.

Wise guy. I do mean dog. I am afraid to let her out of my sight. She is 3 1/2 lbs and thinks she is a hundred and fifty lbs. And she loves to chase. She and I chase the geese when they come around. She just loves it!!!
