I have several that I feed regularly and I love their wacky behavior when they fight over food scraps. They are so pretty and your image shows how normal they can be when not in competition for food.......wonderful creatures.

I wanted to pass on what I learned as the first year I did not realize they had a birth den under the shed. Google "vixen scream". If you are up at night sleepless (sounds familiar now) you may hear some godawful sound. I mistook it for a downed raptor scream several nights the first year. That is the vixen, usually trying to lure something away from the den. The kits are like curious little kids and will come out when the parents are out hunting during the day. It is special if you can witness it and this is the time of year.
The parents especially the male travel a good range hunting too. That's why I suggested the light at night as it shows the eyes from a long distance without disturbing them. They are on the den site at night. If you see them during the day then they are denned locally but that include several square miles. A birth den is one they will scout and secure just for that purpose. When the kits are big enough they will abandon it to go back to the fields or a new den. If pleased with it they will return the next year. Good luck.

Yes, they yawn like a dog. We have foxes here in suburban ATL. Mostly over the last 10 years or so, they look sickly. Not enough cats and other smaller rodents to eat, not enough garbage cans to rummage through. Further into the rural areas, the foxes look healthier and can probably better raise their kits to adulthood.
