the durham digger 127 Posted November 28, 2012 Report Share Posted November 28, 2012 This year iv got a bitch to start but due to the fact im a self-employed pump engineer and local flooding, work and a lot of the pipes and earths are waterlogged so iv had a frustrating start to the season. But one night while working late in2 the night pumping floodwater in2 the river to prevent toll bar and bentley flooding i noticed a white shape comeing towards me on the bank side between the industrial estate and the river, it walked straight under the temporary floodlights and past the pumping station. It was a good size pure white dog fox. Iv spent my whole life digging, coursing, shooting and lamping and have taken numerous dark and lighter than usuall foxes, but iv never known of a white fox. I hope our paths cross again when im out checking earths with the little fellas! Quote Link to post

the durham digger 127 Posted November 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 At first i thought it was a dog until it came in2 the light, it obviously spends a bit of time in the industrial estate coz he wasnt worried about what i was doing. If the forcast is right and its a cold weekend i might try a few spots i know on sunday morning i reckon! 1 Quote Link to post
