Default There's a hole in my compost, dear Liza ....

Actually, two. One looked very much like a fox digging out a
mouse, but the other was fairly neat, 6" in diameter, and turned
a corner. That's a damn small fox! I could easily get mink,
but I didn't think that they dug much. Any ideas?


A test boring for a vixen's birthing den? T'is the right time of
year.


Vixen aren't THAT much smaller! The second hole was such that
I don't believe a fox of either sex could have got in without
making the hole a lot larger. The material doesn't have much
structural integrity.
