It's nice, though, that you had the time with her that you did. There was a program(me) on nthe radio about how the starling, crow and seagull population in Seattle has exploded with the human population. The crows are all banded to track the movement of the West Nile virus. (when the crows die, they get picked up and tested). The last couple of years I have been seeing a turkey vulture downtown. It looks like the scavangers are taking over. Foxy could be sitting on a litter of pups. It’s nice, though, that you had the time with her that you did.

Was thinking about the TV programme we watched on urban foxes, and the people who complain about them. There are far more <a href="http://www.dundeecity.gov.uk/ehts/urbanfoxes.htm" rel="nofollow">urban foxes</a> than rural foxes because humans are such wasteful, messy creatures who leave food lying about all over the place. You can't blame the foxes. I haven't see or heard a live fox around here for ages - they must all have moved into town. Sorry to hear Foxy’s gone, but there’ll probably be another one along soon.
