Short-tailed Shrew

And in this case, short lived. We have a young red fox that's been
hanging around out back. I only caught a glimpse of him yesterday after work,
but my wife sees him almost daily. This is some of his handiwork on one of our trails.

Does he eat it later? I'm surprised the fox kills and leaves. Circle of life though.

That fox is really busy, but unusual it didn't take it away. Maybe later in the evening... V

Hopefully the fox will come back to eat it.

This is the sad side of nature...

Poor little creature. But the fox must eat too, though it is odd that he left it. Perhaps spooked by something. About the only time I see shrews is dead like this, or as a blur running across in front of me! V

Aww....poor little guy. I wonder why the red fox didn't take him for his meal.
