The End

Posted by
B. Thomas (Arlington, Texas, United States) on 31 December 2013 in Animal & Insect.

In the Spirit of Silly Tuesday…
This is the end of the fox, the end of the year, and the end of the fox series. (For now.)

A huge tree has shaded our backyard for 25 years. We had to have it cut down due to the drought. The trunk had grown around a metal fence post so it had to be cut higher than the fence. We were trying to decide how to decorate the tall stump - a potted plant, a vine, a statue or... A LIVE FOX??? Problem solved!  Often a fox will hop up on the stump to look toward our windows to make sure we see them if we are not already outside with their snack of grapes. Or sometimes they use it to just chill.

HAPPY NEW YEAR, EVERYONE!!
