I've seen several foxes this year too. One was stalking the Canada goslings on rt. 5 just past Kendall Station rd. Don't think it got any. The geese were VERY alert and looked like they would attack. The fox kind of sauntered away when I stopped to take pictures. (I didn't get out of my car). Do be aware that aside from a rabies concern with "friendly" foxes, there is a distemper epidemic that is, sadly, a potential problem for foxes, other wildlife and people. They may attack if affected with either disease. Keep your distance and watch for odd behavior.
