Red Fox
Dawn.
Youthful, blonde, red fox with white tipped tail and ears
startled, jumps from the fence into the neighbor’s yard.
Delightful to see after
years of mange and decimation
to the fox population.
Rabbits beware!
Youthful, blonde, red fox with white tipped tail and ears
startled, jumps from the fence into the neighbor’s yard.
Delightful to see after
years of mange and decimation
to the fox population.
Rabbits beware!
