It’s not a good picture, sorry about that. But you can see the fox. I just a few yards from the high street when I saw the fox coming from the left. I was probably about 15 – 20 yards away. As it trotted along, it saw me I started getting my tripod positioned, phone already mounted. The fox took up position on South Cross Street. It quite happily sat there whilst I took these pictures. It was still sitting there when I walked away.
It made me think about other wildlife we might see here in Gosport. Birds certainly, lots of different birds, and sadly rats. I haven’t seen them myself, but I know they are at the waterfront on the sea side of the prom wall. I think there may be deer in the Alver Valley. I wonder when the best time would be to see them. I expect that will be early in the morning. I’d like that.
I think that most success would come with birds. This morning, we had starlings, ring necked doves, pigeons, sparrows, magpies. Not too bad, but there are others. What could I do to attract them? Some research needed. How many times have I said that at the end of a post? I might have followed up a bit on some of them, but not all.
