Using my new Nitesite Viper Rtek again. There's a real benefit to using one to identify quarry in the dark. Tonight's target pests were rats and rabbits using our air rifles, when this happened....
This is a huge vixen! She will be left alone as she isn't causing any problems and in fact will help keep the rats and rabbit population in check. Watched her for quite some time, nice to see the wildlife this week at the various places we get to go to. I'm not surprised the rabbit legged it!
As a side note, sub-12ftlbs air rifles are absolutely not suitable for taking out problem foxes, you really do need a shotgun or firearm to ensure a humane kill. (it's not legal and an injured fox will become a problem...).
