This is Licky; the name stuck when for a while he used to come and lick the pane of glass in the patio door each night. A fine display of white sharp teeth and a long tongue! He is very relaxed about sharing the garden with us. His sister is Nibbler - you'll see why if you read on.

This is a video of the same fox as a cub, slowly approaching me before giving my shoes a sniff. vimeo.com/1089201797
A red fox sitting amongst green plants looking at the camera. The fox fur is mainly browny orange with white parts around the jaw, chest and belly. The tail, legs and ears have some black patches. The nose is black and there are small black lines on each side of the head.
Here is the other fox from the same litter that still lives in our garden.
You can see this fox as a cub in this video from 10 month ago. In the video the fox is eating with the rest of the family. The fox from the two images is the first one to leave.

A red fox lying down, asleep, amongst green plants. The fox fur is mainly browny orange with white parts around the jaw and chest. The tail, legs and ears have some black patches. The nose is black and there is small black patch on the visible side of the head. The other side of the head is resting on the ground.
This is the same fox a couple of minutes later, after falling asleep.

This is one of the foxes who has lived in our garden since being born about a year ago.
Yeah, hi, I’m a person with “mobility challenges” (excuse me while I hurl). What we want, by and large, are not expensive, heavy devices that will “help us walk again”, but ramps.
I know, it’s not sexy, as technology invented before Christ, but it is overlooked in favor of…this. Repeatedly.

I'm not sure how many more times we need to see/hear about violent men calling women "bitch" as they assault & even murder them before we accept that misogynistic slurs aren't neutral.

Radio 4 and BBC and Channel 4 News and all the papers completely skewing the Peggie story so your average person will have no idea what actually happened. Doesn’t this make you furious? Integrity in journalism is dead, not just in the US
Always amused (not amused) at how regularly the idea that there is a 'right' amount of mental ill-health in British society and that we must somehow return there. Declaring the correct amount of mental ill-health based on what you are prepared to pay to mitigate its effects isn't how reduction works
Artists PLEASE I am begging you to use alt text on your art. I want to support you and RT your art but I'm not going to if it does have alt text, and there are so, so many people who feel the same
