I was going to Lidl and I saw them next to me. Do they usually come that close to people?
They looked scared, poor thing.
They nearly got run over :shocked:

I see them a lot round here when it gets dark, often just hanging around driveways or after bins. They are very skittish though and don't like people. I saw one not long ago on a cycle path in the morning and it was terrified, had obviously strayed a bit far and accidentally overstayed the night

They often don't look too well though the urban foxes. Quite mangy.

We have one quite often in the garden. Me and my son set up a camera in the garden one night and he was in the garden most if the night. There are allotments behind my home....and a couple of the owners have chickens so they hate him....

We get a lot of foxes in the field next to ours, they're quite brave around people

I remember someone that I was acquainted with a few years ago who was looking after a Fox nearby where we lived.

The Fox was always so shy when I would see him lol.

we used to see a lot off foxes in London, we haven't seen a single fox since we moved to Norfolk, we had a munjac deer visit our garden yesterday and we have an Owl in the forest at the back, very cute

They can’t ride the horses through peoples gardens in London to hunt them.

I love crows, highly intelligent and sociable creatures. They remember and recognise human faces really well so must love seeing you

If I go out side and call crows at least one will fly to a near by tree or to one of my garden fences and watch as I put out some food for them as soon as I walk away they fly down and start eating and are soon joined by the other adult and normally one other young crow

One adult has some feathers missing on one wing so I can tell it’s the same one coming back each time

They can live up to 20 or 30 years which is amazing.

i really enjoy identifying different birds that come in the garden. Not keen on foxes personally

loads of urban foxes because they can live very well off food scraps and lots of people feed them, we used to have a fox who turned up on our doorstep every evening regular as clockwork then one day just never came back probably got killed crossing the road

loads of rabbits here
