Another video update of Mama Fox and her family.

She showed no fear of me as I worked on the patio door yesterday. Then this morning, her pups are starting to climb trees!

My wife is a long time fan and I finally started listening this week. Outstanding work.

We've been honored that a mama Fox has chosen our North Bay backyard as her den for several years now.

Here's a few pics from yesterday morning. She's standing watch while her 3 pups play in the tall grass.

Gray Fox facing the camera while perched atop a Rubbermaid trash can amid tall grass.

Her pups are playing in the grass below (not visible). Her facial structure is very feline but her body is very canine, and her tail is characteristically fluffy. She is mostly gray with red highlights and is the size of a very large house cat.

Mama Fox update: Captured some video of Mama Fox and her eldest of two pups this morning.

Fun fact: Female Gray Foxes have one uterus for each ovary. So what we thought was "the runt of the litter" may simply be a pup from her second uterus.

More updates soon

Corporate lingo ... Just five minutes listening to it is enough to make the Pope punch a nun.
