Debi from Go Explore Nature! Congratulations!
This sounds magical - would love to share it with my two boys.
ReplyDeleteHow cool!! In my last house we had a family (foxes)down the street that came out each feeding to eat horse grain with the horses. They sat patiently (a foot away) until the horses finished. I will order the book. thanks for sharing
ReplyDeleteOh, those photos look divine! What an experience that must have been. I'll have to follow the links.
ReplyDeleteA few months ago our dog pulled his leash out of my son's hand and took off into the woods. The two of us, plus a neighbor, went looking. I heard a "Yip, yip!" and the noise of two animals crashing through the woods. Just then I came upon my dog, and a fox, facing each other three feet apart, with my dog in a play bow. They had been having fun!
ReplyDeleteHow cool is that?! I am so going to have to find a copy of that book. (:
ReplyDeleteThis looks like a wonderful book I know my kids would enjoy.
ReplyDeleteWe have a fox on our property. I would love to share this book with my daughter!
ReplyDeleteThis looks like a lovely book. I would like to win it. Please enter me. My son would love and probably begin searching for his own fox family. :)

That sounds like something my boys would like!
ReplyDeleteSounds great! I get so excited when we see wild animals in our very own yard :)
ReplyDeleteWe have a family with 4 kits living across the road and it has been amazing for a city kid like me to catch glimpses of them!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos of the foxes. Looks like an interesting book. I'll check and see if my library has a copy.
ReplyDeleteOh honey, did you ever twang my heart strings with this post. Jeff and I have had so many wonderful encounters with fox, including one who always slept outside his office window (on our island). One used to go for walks with us late at night, and we once witnessed mama and babies dancing and leaping stiff legged under a full moon.
ReplyDeleteThanks for this posting dear friend.
