Wildlife At Lawnswood

Here are some photographs of the wildlife we have encountered in our garden in Claxton, an amazing variety.

Red Fox

We have a family of red foxes near us and they come into our garden every night on to the lawn, they also go onto the village green as I have seen their droppings in several places. We clean up the mess they leave on a daily basis.  One night they were after our neighbours chickens and the young cubs were screaming, it was a terrible sound to wake up to at 4am!

They sometimes come into the garden from 3pm in the afternoon and dont appear to be frightened by humans.
