Red Fox “Mousing”

When a fox is hunting small voles and mice, they often leap gracefully into the air to pounce on their intended prey from above. Foxes will do this if their target is in thick grass or under snow, so I have used a little artistic licence here – I wanted the mouse to be visible too. Needless to say; the mouse usually escapes! This hunting technique is called, “Mousing” and that is what this little vixen is doing.
