I saw/heard Mother Nature in action the other day. I was getting ready to go to work, and looked out our back window - we're in a foresty/woody area, and there are usually squirrels in the back garden. No squirrels that morning, but suddenly I saw a fox run across the grass - I was really surprised, and called Jo in to see, but the fox had already gone. We smiled, and basked in the glory of Mother Nature.

When we left the house, we heard the fox bark, and then there was the sudden, umistakeable sound of a crow screeching in agonising pain. The screech suddenly stopped, cut off mid-voice, and all was quiet again. We stood there looking at each other, our smiles in pieces on the ground. Mother Nature, in all her fragile beauty...

Ah! What a cute widdle foxie-woxie!
