Wow!  Don't know if the 2 Deer in the last picture with Willow are the 2 in the other pictures, but if they are, hopefully Willow is telling them to behave and get along!  Smiley Happy

Oh my goodness! A lot going on today!

 

No fighting guys! "We can work it out."

 

I wonder if the fox, who is quite handsome, is afraid of the deer (I would be when they fight like that), or if the deer are afraid of him or both keep their distance.

 

Then after all that, a gentle hello to Willow. Amazing.

@MamaWick   Oh my!   Those bucks should realize that there is plenty for all.  Sheesh, I guess boys just got to show off. 

What a beautiful and healthy looking fox, no doubt due to the good eats at the Wicks'.  

Woofs and hugs to adorable Miss Willow White having a conversation with the well behaved deer.  🥰

WOW!!  Busy activity at Ms Willow's homestead!

     And (that pic), Ms Willow's checking things out, making sure everything is copasetic.

 

Are the deer, (or Ms Willow), or Mom/Pop, in any danger with that Fox, or any foxes visiting? (or any other animals also visiting?)

 

    I dont know much abt foxes either, except that a former neighbor's backyard housed chickens were torn thru by a fox, and many of the local neighbors could tell.  What an awful, ugly brouhaha.

   And that's the extent of my knowledge abt foxes.

  

    I dont even know where foxes live, or what they eat, (except perhaps chickens)! 

   I know, if I saw one, Id rush inside, & watch him/her intently, checking the fox out, but, thru a window!

@JoyFilled Warrior,

We used to have a red fox around our apartments and my mother had one come by every so often at her senior community with row type houses very close together. and deer.

I guess all the animals are just looking for food anywhere they can find it.

The foxes always seemed to steer clear of humans. They can carry diseases like rabies.

The food must be very good at the Wick Haven and sharing isn't always the way to go for the Deer!!!!!  I hope they settle their dispute and play nice!!!!!

 

Great picture of the Fox and of course I always enjoy photos of Willow and the Deer bonding!!!!!!

We have foxes in my general neighborhood.   They eat vegetables,  rodents, worms, garbage and birds.  Someone on my Next Door app posted a picture of one sunning on his deck next to one of his cats.  The ones here are fairly friendly but I still wouldn't get too close to one especially during baby season.
