Right, so after the rabbit went down a storm, I thought I'd try my hand at a few more bits of local wildlife - the sort of creatures you'd actually find knocking about where we lived. This handsome chap is your classic native English fox. Probably on his way to raid someone's bin, but looking rather magnificent while doing it.
There’s something brilliant about foxes. They wander about looking like they pay no taxes and answer to nobody. They look elegant right up until the moment they start screaming in the middle of the night like someone’s dropped a piano on them.
This one, looking calm and alert, was drawn from a photograph of a native English fox not far from where I lived.
