Red Foxes at Red Oak Hollow.
We have fox dens in our woods, just off the main hiking trail.
We believe that they have been there for decades.
In our few short years here, we have learned their calendar.
Winter is the mating dance.
They return in January or February.
I heard them last week-end, so we know they are back.
I believe that the female returns and cries out for a date.
She knows that she has a great den and all she needs is a mate.
This may go on for a month or the male may or may not come around.
I read that foxes travel 60 miles within their territory.
We will see what happens this winter, may bring kits this spring.
Last year, we had a litter.
To catch a glimpse of a fox is a gift.
They are quick. The fox cliches are not cliches but observations.
Our winters are brief but worth experiencing at Red Oak Hollow.
