PHOTO: Foxes Seen Around the Cape
A pair of grey foxes were photographed in Cape St. Claire over the weekend.
Facebook user Marcia McBride Rullman posted pictures of two grey foxes perched on her fence in Cape St. Claire on Sunday.
In the comment thread that followed, Capers' reactions ranged from frightened to adoration.
Serena Boyd, whose cat Nila had been missing for nearly two weeks until appearing suddenly over the weekend, said she was glad her cat was indoors now. Other neighbors with outdoor animals shared similar views.
According to the Maryland Department of Natural Resources, the grey fox is omnivorous, and is the only member of the canid family that can climb trees effectively.
Have you seen foxes in your neighborhood?

Our backyard is the frequent gathering spot for Grey and Red Foxes, deer, and the occasional raccoon, all of which leave the cat completely alone. Broadneck is full of them.

U saw a red fox three straight times on Mountain Top in the Cape while driving to pick my daughter up from work late night. Not since though.

The baby red fox come out around dusk. They want to play with
my dogs. For the most part, the fox around me pretty much keep to themselves.
The Red...are really beautiful.
