This morning I went to check out some areas in the woods near me that previously had some fox dens. One looked pretty promising, something was actively using the hole, but no signs of any kits around. (Yes, I still have ambitions of photographing fox kits near my home!) I watched the hole for awhile and then decided to check out some other areas nearby. While I didn’t encounter any more leads to dens, I did discover a new area that was rich with wildflowers. The area was filled with squirrel corn, trillium, violets, and trout lilies. I marked it to return to next year as it looked like it might also be rich in blood root and possibly hepatica that are already past.




Excellent photo! This is what I strive for. I just found the site and am enjoying it immensely, I’ve even included a link to it from my blog. I hope that you don’t mind.
It is quite nice of these animals to trust us with taking their photos, especially when there are a number of people who are quite callous in their treatment of animals and the environment. At least some folks are thoughtful enough to provide refuge for them.
Regards,
Paul
