Sitting Fox

Sitting Fox sculpture carved in Hazeldean Sandstone – 10″ x 7″ x 15″

My first close sighting of a Fox took me by surprise.  I was returning from a lovely walk on the moor, the path leading to a close-cropped grass area, flanked by steep rising slopes of Autumn coloured bracken.  It was from one of these thickets that the Fox leapt – almost straight up in the air, catching the tail of a passing pigeon, which was flustered but unharmed.  Both were out of sight in a flash, leaving just a few pale feathers as evidence of what had just happened only yards from where I stood.

A little glimpse of Fox, alluringly beautiful and entrancingly wild – an encounter I’ll never forget.
