Fox sightings

Those of you who travel through the Park on the "Hill Road" from Glentrool to Straiton may have seen this fox. This individual is fairly tame and does not appear to worry about cars driving past. He is distinctively marked, having particularly brown hindquarters and is often seen hunting mice in the roadside verges. As autumn advances and the grasses die down, chances of seeing him are even better.
