Here's one wee youngster to melt many hearts, a series of photos of a relatively new visitor to the garden
And time to go home to mummy and daddy...

Shame on you.
You can get a decent 32GB mem card delivered for sensible money, no need to go out to the shops.

More trailcam fox activity.
Sound on, volume up for the next three videos.
Foxes territorial dispute.
As this years cubs mature, they have to sort out who stays and who moves on.

The cubs are growing fast.
A playful fox, not quite a cub any longer, but definitely juvenile

Lot to learn

Yep.
But aren't all youngsters!
More fox cub and juvenile videos captured on the trailcam, with adults as well in some clips.
The cubs as you would expect are growing fast and I’ve definitely lost track of who is who, not that I really had much of an idea, though I was aware there is more than one litter, mainly by the size difference.
But the wee ones are catching up fast, and it won't be long before they're all adult sized and indistinguishable from adult foxes.
They’re all 10 second short videos.

We still have fox cubs, and still looking young cubs as well, visiting the garden. However, after a heavy weekend with an already deteriorated leg, i'm not able to sort the trailcams out at the moment.
But, they are still around, still young looking, but growing fast.
I've manage to convince my wife, that she can't break the trailcams, and have now managed to rescue some of the footage, which I'm able to share here. We still have cubs looking and acting like cubs, but they are growing up fast.
Hopefully now I'm a little more able to walk, but not far, and weight bear on my leg a little more, I my get the camera out in the garden. In the interim, enjoy the rescued short trailcam videos.

OK, not quite a youngster, but I just love the expression on this fox's face, probably an adolescent fox.
Possibly startled a bit by the infra red glow, which will illuminate and probably look like eyes staring at the fox.
