Foxes are the very best people ..

Amazingly we made the journey from my sister's back home without incident - mum's such a bad traveller that it's quite a rare occurrence!

I went out to see if there were any foxes about, and noticed they'd acquired a new toy - one of those balls you can get for dogs which you hide a bit of food in and it occupies them for hours!

Either Father Christmas had been, or they've been out stealing, naughty things!

So - I put a bit of chicken in the ball and went inside and waited .. but not for long!

This is Scaredy, who tried very hard to get the chicken out and got a bit cross, and ended up heading into the undergrowth with it ..

Good luck Scaredy :)
