It just seems so exotic to have them wandering around in our garden!<br /><br />Ms Moon: I always heard cooked chicken bones are dangerous because they can splinter. But raw ones, supposedly, won't hurt them. I have no idea whether this is really true.<br /><br />Ellen: The movie addresses that -- Cheney's plan to invade Iraq long before 9/11.<br /><br />Robin: Isn't she beautiful? Makes me want to buy chicken for her every day!<br /><br />Red: That's true! I'm scared to hope for it!<br /><br />Sharon: It's a pretty good movie. I'd recommend it, even given your ambivalence!<br /><br />Still Water: I think wild foxes have tough lives. The ones in London supposedly live only a couple of years. I think cars get a lot of them. And YES, cemeteries in London are fascinating!<br /><br />Catalyst: Coyotes are the foxes of Arizona, I suppose! The same niche in the ecosystem...<br /><br />Bug: Isn't she? Well insulated for winter!<br /><br />Sue: We have lots of foxes in central London. They're a fairly common sight. Supposedly one was once found sleeping on top of a filing cabinet in Parliament!<br /><br />Jenny-O: YES, I think Cheney is out of the picture. His health has been so bad I can't imagine him coming back yet again!Steve Reedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11684120060438252945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5123631695572626256.post-65643660204779995882019-02-04T23:43:26.284+00:002019-02-04T23:43:26.284+00:00That fox IS healthy looking.

I'm glad you made use of that left-behind chicken and I'll bet Olga enjoyed her morsels :)<br /><br />I don't know if I could stand watching a movie about Dick Cheney!

I actually enjoy cemeteries for that because it’s so interesting to read the headstones. At least over there; the US ones are mostly newer and have so much less character. Again, it’s nice to take these little virtual jaunts along with you and Olga!Stillwaterrunsdeephttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03732362894625014769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5123631695572626256.post-19893197941303166922019-02-04T17:27:31.123+00:002019-02-04T17:27:31.123+00:00Your weather sounds just like mine.

I’d share a photo with you (if I knew how), of fox tracks in the snow on a frozen lake one morning at dawn three years ago...it was amazing! They must have had some kind of kill, or feast, and the designs of paw prints on the snow all coalesced into a nucleaus area in the middle, very pretty design work! Nature is very beautiful, if you look beyond the gruesomeness/need to survive. I would put out meat for them, but the neighbor advised against it due to the bears in the area; we don’t need to draw them near to the homes.
