Post-Partum something...



If anyone, woman or beast, was going to experience any sort of post-partum trauma, it might be Tilly.  This afternoon, she had ALL 6 baby foxes nursing at one time.  I felt bad for her. Here is photographic proof of her dismay.  She really needs some time at the spa or something to rejuvenate her.  She's looking pretty bad.  At least Mr. Fox isn't around right now to pester her.  For that she can be very thankful.

Tilly has taken over our backyard.  She has 6 kits!!!  At first we thought there were 4, but last night the other 2 emerged and they all play in the back yard AND up on the deck.  One of the babies came right up next to the sliding glass door.  IT WAS CRAZY!!!!  Marky wants to feed them because the mama fox looks hungry. Haggard is more like it.  Here are a few pictures.  We don't need any TV since we spend lots of time watching the foxes.  Molly and Miley are feeling a little under appreciated.
