As some of you already know my garden has been known to have very obliging foxes, last year it was a male and this year its a female. ...so one was up before sunrise this morning as just one of them sleepless nights and who was in the garden as I pulled up the blind

Adult foxes are quite small. When you look at the vixen, (and she's a mum currently) in my photo, and count the bricks, which are 65mm height, which makes her around 265mm, or 14 inches.
They are small, but perfectly formed and lovely creatures

It could be, along with any preconceptions we have of size.
When I watch them on the trailcam vids, they always seems quite large, until, a hedgehog comes in on the scene, and the hoggie looks large.
Lot to learn
Thanks Gaynor...the whole bloody family is bringing food for her now...she's better fed than me!
