fred the fox waiting for leftovers!
 

he comes over most evenings and has even come as close to 2 ft away to take food from us..i know some of you dont like foxes for your own reasons but he is a good looking fella imo.

Oh wow lucky you :-).
Great photo he's lovely.

What a sport, he even posed so beautifully for you! You're lucky to be on friendly terms with such a stunning creature :)

Aw he's gorgeous! I like foxes too! you're very lucky to have him come that close to you! I want a fred in my garden :(

great photo and great to see there are people giving the fox a fair go to many treat them as vermin but they have just as much right to be here as we do. good on you.

I love to see foxes, and yes I see a picture of the fox everyday on my browser as i'm using firefox he he :)

oh wow. nce picture. youre really lucky. i never saw a living fox before. it seems magical somehow. maybe i should have listened to one of the best study advisor i ever has. he suggested, that i should start animalphotography.

will do so, soon!

OMG!
really thank you for your picture.
i took my camera, and went in the woods.
i say a deer and i think, i got some really good picture out of it.
since i'm still an old-fashioned analog photgrapher, i cannot say, if the shots are really good. but i have a good feeling about it.
we'll see in some days.

He is beautiful - I love foxes. Lovely photo - look after him for us :)

Let me start by saying that I am a HUGE animal lover. They all have a purpose and personality, and this guy is quite handsome. The only thing that you should consider is the fact that he is way too confident around you. This means that he is associating food with you, and that means he'll associate it with other, not so nice people too. When you hear 'Don't feed wild animals' most people think 'why not? I'm not going to hurt them or feed them anything dangerous, and I'm not afraid of them either' but those aren't the only reasons. If he gets too close to the wrong person because he's not afraid, he'll be in trouble. There is nothing wrong with maybe leaving some tidbits for him, but he should instinctively flee the moment a human comes around, he shouldn't be able to survive on the food you leave him and, if avoidable, he shouldn't know where it comes from. Try spying on him through windows instead. My home is in the middle of woods and I'm able to see wildlife a LOT, and it is truly special to see those that are thriving and beautiful so I understand your excitement. Congratulations on having such an animal so close to home!
