Hi Diane! Thanks for your wonderful comments!

This little gal is a fox . She is a grey phase of the red fox . They are very small , weighing about 12 to 15 lbs . I have a den on my property where three little foxes spent the winter . Their parents moved on ... Each one is a different color . She has a little brother that is of the true red fox coloring and a sister that is of the cross fox phase ( a sort of red brindle with a black cross over the shoulders and back) . This one is the only one with the little black mask and it really suits her personality . I've seen her steal things for the other two quite a few times .
