I set the ISO to 800 and hoped for the best in the fading light.

He is still small, but looks quite healthy. I hope that means he&#8217;s been catching lots of mice, especially the ones near my house. I&#8217;ve read that the red foxes&#8217; favorite foods are mice and voles. The foxes eat as many as they can and then bury any others they kill for later meals.
