Apparently it is a skulk, leash, or earth (?)...weird! Since foxes are usually solitary and you don't see them in groups much, I guess these names are not generally heard. If I had to pick, I would say 'skulk'.

Fluff is a beauty. He would make someone a good pet. But he is feral, born outside and is about a year old now. He will come close, but doesn't want to be touched. <br />As for my bird pics, if I come across any I think worth posting, I will... not sure at the moment where they are (in boxes or on my computer).
