Fox's. To feed or not to feed?

We feed the foxes most nights with any food scraps that are available. They seem to enjoy any thing, from meat. bones. bread or any stale cake. I usually go out into the garden, and adjoining meadow, at about 7.30pm (weather permitting)  There are always 4 or 5 foxes waiting for their scraps. They have become quite tame and confident with us. I wear a lamp on my head, which is very bright. This must be the sign that the foxes wait for, and their eyes are the first visible sign that they are watching and waiting for their treats. Many people will not agree with foxes being encouraged to come into their garden to be fed. I question it myself, but when I am actually throwing them the scraps and watch them, I know that I would hate to see this lovely animal disappear from our Countryside.

 

Spring is definitely not far away.

I had a ploughman's lunch the other day.  He wasn't very happy!
