And NOW I would like to introduce Fantastic Mr Fox!!!
He is too skittish the now compared to Mrs who barely moves an inch if I stand outside, glad to finally see him in decent light.
Hopefully one day soon he too will become content with the hand that feeds him!!!
Well that's all I got of him so far so back to my gorgeous girl....
Thanks for looking. Hope you enjoy my fantastic foxes as much as I do ;-)

Rocket was 1st on the scene today...
My son said mum you need to give him some chicken now look at him he's sitting so lovely
As I fed him my gorgeous girl turned up ...Rocket allowed her to pass by him and get some chicken then she ran behind the potting shed to eat.,,she came back for a couple of more bit but didn't manage to get pics just glad to see her eat ;-)
Aw, he is such a lovely fellow, so furry and elegant looking, what a gent, allowing Mrs to have some food.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
Lot to learn
Linda,
I don't know what batteries you're using, I've found for most conditions, you need proprietary brand batteries, and if you can push the financial boat out further, Lithium cells are more durable in cold conditions.
Avoid rechargeable batteries, they quickly lose the charge, particularly in cold weather.

Duracell is a good brand.
60% under freezing winter conditions is hard going for alkaline batteries, which is why I use Lithium.
Some years back for a project I did a test under controlled conditions alkaline vs lithium, and though lithium are more expensive, there wasn't much difference in the overall cost taking into consideration the longer endurance of Lithium cells.
One of last years young still comes for her chicken
