Fox!

Some of the Swamp volunteers found a fox den this month. I wasn't there for it, but they posted the results of putting up a camera, because obviously no fox was hanging around with humans.

In case this link doesn't work; what they saw was a vixen coming to check on the place overnight. This feels incredible, in the heart of the city, in an area which is not that large. I don't know the stats on the Swamp area's size, but it only takes me 30-40 minutes to walk around it. To get here, the fox would have had to travel through suburban streets, though there IS a larger bushland only a few kilometres away that she could have travelled from. This is not good news for anything small, furry and prey-classified [bandicoots!] that live here. Probably not for the smaller waterbirds either, though we're past nesting season.
