While we were at our house which is being refurbished this weekend, it is in Penrhiwllan, we watched a red fox that had a black tail with no white tip and a large black chest, very striking indeed. We have a den in our woods that we have watch for a few years but never seen this fox before. I am not sure if it is a winter coat or not, but do you know any one with some knowledge on foxes that might tell me more.
