Fox and the Mouse – Marsh Diary: 605 – 26/09/2025

A nice Wilden Marsh moment captured on FoxCam: a young red fox hunting in the Tenant Farmer’s Field. He looks so alive—sleek, alert, and full of restless energy. It spied a mouse; a few spritely leaps and he had it.

    Brilliant – he was wonderful to watch! What was the bird sound?

      Thank you, Cathy. satis warbler, maybe. I’m not great on identifying bird song.

      Apparently, the alarm call is made by a Wren. Such a lot of noise from such a small bird.

        I am always astonished by them. It was so clear on your clip that I couldn’t place it at all😀
