Last time at the yards I shot a cracker of a boar so while still seeking a boar tonight amongst the cows I took some time out to bring this fox in. My best effort so far. This is a still from the vid. I was filming with my thermal binos. Had I been filming with my scope I may have been tempted to flick the safety of the 243 but not this time. Very lucky fox.
