I love foxes Steve. There are many round here, but sadly there are often corpses of foxes at the side of Norfolk roads, along with dead badgers, pheasants and deer. Roadkill always saddens me. Mrs Quackie, the mallard duck, has been having a passionate affair with another male. I think Mr Quackie is sulking - he spends much of the day sitting moping on the roof of the bungalow opposite. Maybe he's contemplating divorce. Her six eggs are still in my neighbour's front garden, and we're hoping they hatch soon.
