30th June 2023

It has been a long while since I posted a video about our fox cubs. This five-minute video shows the fox cubs still with the Vixen down at our waterhole. The timeline is from mid-end June.

On the waterhole (pond) you can see a pair of moorhens racing around the pond, and preening. In one shot at about 32 seconds in you can see a fox cub on the bank, and the moorhens in the pond.

At 45 seconds in, a Muntjac (?) deer makes an appearance, after which we see a Vixen and her two cubs walking along the bank in the darkness.

During daylight hours, a grey heron comes fishing and catches a small unidentified morsal of food from the pond.

More fox cubs and their mother appear during daylight and darkness, often to come for a drink from the pond.

A Greater Spotted Woodpecker appears at 3.15. It hangs around entertaining us for a few seconds.

Not so nice is Ratty at 4.45.

Finally, a Jay comes for a drink.
