  I was at the City of London cemetery this morning and spotted a fox climbing a tree (photo below, not great quality as it happened so quickly.) I didn't realise foxes did this but apparently grey foxes can climb trees, but the only red foxes that do are those that live near grey foxes. As far as I know we don't have grey foxes here, is that right?

  Jeane, I often see and hear foxes in my back garden during the night, below Western Heights.
  When they go to sleep, the seagulls start kicking up a racket, followed by wood pigeons.
  By that time though, I'm sipping my morning coffee and listening to pipes and drones.

  Great photo but keep your eyes peeled for a red coat wearing horn blowing mounted BarryW hot on its heels with a bunch of hooray henrys in pursuit.
