I was startled awake at 5 this morning. I thought I’d hear a terrified woman scream. I hopped out of bed and listened to hear where it was coming from outside. Half asleep, I was going to run out and help if I could. Then the sound came again and I realized it wasn’t human. It was a ghastly shriek that could only be supernatural.
Or a fox.
I looked at Jenny was also awake and asked, “Is that one of the foxes?” She said yes.
We have a family or pack of foxes living in our neighborhood and I remembered Jenny telling me about hearing one once. She told me about how it wasn’t what you’d expect.
So, I stepped out into deck in the dark to capture some audio of the little guy letting the entire block know it was time to get up.
