The endearing sight of baby lambs frolicking in lush green fields or the first glutinous bubbles of frogspawn jiggling around in ponds heralds the imminent arrival of spring.It's the season of renewal and rebirth, and our cue to wave goodbye to winter by getting outside and witnessing the miracles of new life in the natural world.
FOX AND CUBS
Fox cubs are born blind and deaf in litters of four or five. They spend the first few days of their lives snuggled up to their mothers in the safe environment of a den. During April and May, when they are around four weeks old, the fox cubs can be seen engaging in playful combat with their siblings as they explore the outside world. At this stage their adorable blue eyes change to amber, and red fur starts to replace their soft and fluffy, brownish/grey juvenile fur.
Foxes are highly intelligent and have acute eyesight, hearing and sense of smell, all essential attributes that help them hunt for food and survive in the wild.
