OK, our little gray fox trundled down the sidewalk last night at about 9:15. Wonder if he is digging a den in the same flowerbed he used last year? I'll have to go out and check it over carefully. Now that our aspidistras are growing back after the Texas 2021 snowpocalypse, he has some hiding places once again. I just happened to be watching TV and looked out the window at our Christmas lights right when he sauntered by the only 3' of sidewalk visible from inside. He always moves quickly, head down, like he's "on a mission". When I got up to go to the front door sidelight windows to see him, I couldn't see where he went. Hope he comes back regularly now. He's been AOL since August! I guess this might not be the SAME fox we had around last winter.
