Vulpes vulpes

One of the delights of living here in Kärrtorp is our close proximity to the forest.
I think I must have gone a bit native living in Sweden as nowadays it's very iomportant to my well-being to have lots of trees in the near proximity so that I can go and hug them.

Today I was making my way over from school to pick up Zoe from the nursery when suddenly there at the top of the stairs was a fox staring at me. It's one of the very few occasions in my life that I've seen a wild fox, the other memorable one being on a mountainside in County Galway.

He took a quick look at me and then legged it off into the snow. Magic!

Certainly an improvement of the day that I was leaving our flat with the kids and found a large rat sitting on the doorstep!
