I found this at the bottom of our garden early yesterday morning. It is a 2-foot (mature) female Grass Snake.

I was not until I processed the images that I saw the two small wounds. The fox left a faecal pellet as a final comment.

We get foxes in our garden every day/night. Currently, there are two (sisters?) vixens with two cubs of different ages, so they would be protective towards them.

We used to get more snakes a couple of decades ago. Now were are getting more foxes.

The stereo is crosseye.
