Smile Fox in my Garden

Thought I'd share with you all some pics of a Fox that regularly visits my garden, up until now I have been unable to capture he/she on camera but with a little perseverance and some raw chicken wings I finally got these! this is the first time I have caught a wild Fox on camera so I am very pleased
Apologies for the poor picture quality ( camera shake )

Lovely shots and a healthy Fox clearly not fed on Kentucky fried chicken.

Re: Fox in my Garden

Hiya all, thanks for the responses I know it's been about for a couple of months at least, I think it's quite young? looks quite small.
I've only recently had an outside security light put up so now when it enters the garden the light comes on and I can see it

I have indeed been putting food down for him/her naturelover seems like his/her favourite is raw chicken wings I scatter them on the lawn then wait, luckily I have a security light that comes on when it detects movement so I know to get the camera ready! doesn't seem bothered to see me in the window, so obviously used to people, it'll be nice if more turn up
