Fox in the Paddock

It has been literally years since we have seen foxes in the paddock behind our garden. Last time I think it was winter and there was snow on the ground. WE saw a ginger flash through the fences and initially thought it was a cat but when we went to the door we could see this rather fine and bushy specimen of a fox. Our neighbour saw it the other day so I wonder if we will be seeing it more regularly.
