Wild life in Your Back Yard

Someone, or should I say an animal has been shitting on my lawn, literally. The excrement is too big for a cat, though could possibly be that of a massive tom cat. I've ruled out dogs as the garden is completely fenced off. So who/what is the culprit?

The other night, whilst taking out the rubbish I came face to face with a fox which was rummaging through my neighbour's bins. I don't know who was more startled, me or the fox. WOW!!!!!!!! a fox!
I've missed the British wild life so much. So you cannot imagine how amazing this sighting is for me.

I can't wait to discover what else lies in my garden and the surrounding area. A ramble in Richmond Park with the children will be a must to catch glimpses of the fallow deers. Last time I was there was back in 1991, when I was working in the entomology dept at the MOD. There was an outbreak of Lyme disease and we were looking for ticks!
