I was aware that foxes were partial to worms but that is the first time I've seen it happening. A bit like eating half cooked spaghetti. :)

I think worms make up a relatively large proportion of their diet when conditions are right.

A couple of years ago I tossed out some over-ripe bananas thinking the birds might peck at them but was surprised to see a large fox scoff them.

After putting a bit of chicken skin out, a fox with an injury to its forehead snapped it up. Then 10 minutes later, another individual arrived but was scared off by the halloween fireworks!

A pair of foxes hunting together at sunrise this morning in the local valley.

Thanks Snappy. I have loads of them but that was my favourite. Not sharp as they say but the fox looking at the sunrise in a frosted field was great. It must be hard for them at the moment.
