Ken's Deputy 4,462 Posted December 30, 2020 Report Share Posted December 30, 2020 I'm really enjoying this! Got up, today. Looked out there. There they are! Snuffling around the spot where I put their grub. Two of them, together. Presumably a pair? I got on with my own shit. Eventually, having downed enough tea to stand up unsupported, I gathered up all the grub for everyone and went on my breakfast run; Cheese for the little birds. Seed for the flock. Soaked dog food and day old chicks for the foxes. I put it all in its usual places and walk away, calling the birds and foxes. Sneakily having a furtive scan out the corner of my eye for red faces. Couldn't see them. Came back in here. Looked out the window. There's a fox, scoffing the chicks! Where the hell did the bugger come from?! Probably twenty seconds since I turned my back on that grub! They've both been back since. Scoffed the kibble and fukked off to the top end. I see they go round in circles up there. Wonder why? Then exit, stage left. I think I know where they'll be denning then. And, as they were fukking off, the resident pair of crows and a random magpie arrived to pick clean the spot the kibble had been. (Point of interest? I get a shit ton of rooks out there. They never so much as glance sideways at the day old chicks. Crows will snatch them in an instant, of course. Rooks only come for the bird seed) Tonight, I'll put out a load more kibble and chicks. I've brought the trail cam in now because, well; It'll film foxes. In snowy black and white Like, so what? I Know I have foxes. I know what they look like. I see them every day. In full colour. Wondering what I should get up to next! I Do fukking enjoy my life! 1 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ken's Deputy 4,462 Posted December 30, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2020 So; Moon's up. Frost is down. It's a sharp one, here, tonight. Earlier, I step outside to put the foxes night grub out. Have the outside light on, just through force of habit. Have the big dog with me, because. I go out the gate and, as I'm walking the few several yards to where I feed them? I look up and see two little yellow orbs! Bare fifteen yards up the track! Little fukker's sitting there, waiting for me! Funny; Dog went off like a shot gun. I was busy, out of sight. But, his noise told me he'd seen the fox come close. The length of his noise told me the fox couldn't give a fukk! It was just scoffing its grub, in plain sight. Fox knows the monster's the other side of the gate and can't do shit. Interests me, how quickly creatures can figure shit out. Any idiot can call a fox to a lamp and drop it. Miss that fukker though? Who looks the idiot, next time?
