As November 24th deepens into late autumn, Britain’s mammals quietly shift into winter mode. Squirrels look plump with thicker fur and bushy tails as they bury the last of their nuts. Fox families are breaking up; cubs lie low by day, then dash across roads at night, while the eerie staccato scream of the vixen begins to pierce the darkness again. Red and fallow deer feed hard to rebuild reserves after the rut, stretching up on hind legs for the final tree leaves and foraging for acorns and chestnuts.
