camokid Posted February 28, 2011 Report Share Posted February 28, 2011 hi all not being able to get out tonight both the kids are ill with a stomach bug so thought id bless you all with my company. iv got off to a good start this year with the foxes. there seems to be a couple around and more to come as iv found a couple of dens. anyway here is a couple of pic of some of the foxes that iv taken. this fox was a real strange one. i first clocked him at about 300yards in the spinny but was not sure on what it was due to only seeing one eye glowing back. i called for about 10 min with no luck then i proceeded closer and closer till i was at about 90 yards then the story came clear it was a fox but with only one eye the shot was taken to the head in the other eye bit of a mess. and this one was by far the worst conditoned fox iv shot. it had next to no fur and no tail down to mange a hole in the front of his face and he looked very soar and coverd in ticks. this one was a must to take. bit of a poor pic took on phone camera battery died and a couple more, all foxes took with cz17hmr and howa223 thanks andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
