Happy Mother’s Day to all the Mom’s out there – four legged and two legged.

A tip from a fellow shutterbug led me to this beautiful Red Fox vixen and her den this week. She apparently has six kits so is very busy keeping them fed. I made two visits over the last couple of days and have never seen more than three of the young ones at once but apparently she is splitting them between two dens, a wise move to keep them safe.
