Erthona - Sometimes when looking at the sun it seems white, or just a blur of white light. The fox was gored, or pierced, by hounds' jaws (it's about fox-hunting in England). He's since been left and somewhat covered by fallen leaves, which form a pattern on his body. Thank you for your honest critique, and those lovely punsBig Grin

John Galt - I live in England, and the fox was gored by a pack of hounds, led by toffs on horsebackBig Grin Thank you for your kind critique! I have to ask, by the way: did you get your name from Atlas Shrugged?

ChristopherSea - Is fox-hunting a thing outside the UK? And by fox-hunting I mean the upper-classes-in-red-coats-and-black-hats-on-horseback variety. Foxes can be useful, as you say, though I feel a bti sorry for the poor squirrel! Thank you for your interesting comments.
Oh yes, there is fox hunting through Europe, United States and Australia. I think that using hounds to chase and tear the poor beast apart is outlawed for the most part. Now, they just flush them out of the bush and chase them into their lairs. The Chase must be halted after they take to going underground.
