RED FOX DEN

We had the opportunity to photograph some Red Fox kits at a local den site.  They were very entertaining when they finally appeared.  Their den was a Gopher Tortoise hole.  The sandy mound that you see in most of the photos is the excavated soil.  I don't know whether the foxes added to the pile, but it was an impressive hole.  There were supposed to be six kits, we saw only four at one time, and could get only three into a photo.
