I have been watching a pair of foxes hunting in a wood but had no luck locating their cubs. Then last night mom brought all six out right in front of me.

Very nice shots! We a mom with a litter of 9 across the street a few weeks ago. They've apparently scattered now, we don't see them any more (if interested, check out my post "Little foxes").

I believe the young are called "kits".
I just looked it up and they can be called kits, cubs, or pups. I should have looked first!

Very good and you were lucky to be in the right place at the right time or the Vixen decided you were not going to harm them with being around before.
