First British sighting of rare black fox captured on film

Image
According to legend, it brings doom and disaster to anyone who sees it. But an amateur photographer could hardly believe his luck when he spotted an extremely rare black fox. Kevin Hehir, 48, from Preston, saw it in a Lancashire cemetery. He said: 'I thought it was the Devil looking at me. Then I thought, "It's a myth, there's no such thing". But I managed to get right up to it and it's definitely a young black fox. The black fox is in fact an ordinary red fox which has black fur or is going through a phase where the colour of its fur is particulary dark. The phenomenon is normally seen in growing cubs and generally the fox will develop to have a dark chestnut coat. However a few red foxes will remain black due to a rare genetic flaw dating back hundreds of years. In North America, foxes with black coats are often found with a variable amount of white or white-banded hair in the dark coat. Centuries-old superstitions are often found attached to black animals, ...

I've finally found time and a topic to write on.And im not quite sure what the topic's about.The week went by,and n its been one of the most tiring ones indeed.College is going on in full swing,leaving little lime for any preoccupations.Internals,project submissions have been the highlight of the week.Scary things have happened around the world this week, making the week, ful of news headlines.The credit crunch showed its final teeth, leading to the fall of all major financial institutions,like Lehman Brotheres,and AIG of late.

BSNL India review

A month has passed since i took my bsnl internet connection.I would rate this company a 7/10.Now you must be wondering why an average rating..Thats because, i had lots of trouble getting it in the first place.I had to run from one exchange to the other,finally leading to the correct exchange... BSNL does not contact you at any stage, stating delay reasons,and thats the first boot to their acclaimed customer care.however, it is worthy of mention, that after the location and jurisdiction issues are sorted out, the telephone arrives in 2-3 days time...a bit of bribery comes in at this stage. With the telephone configured,and a few telephone numbers of the lines men in your pocket, it is the time for the long wait that involves your login id and password to me created.As per my knowledge of POP 3 servers goes, a password and an id creation happens at the millionth of a second! Thats the second setback from the prized 10/10. Now the third reason comes quick.BSNL does not mention that you h...

A well meant change...

Ive been on blogger for about over a year now, and to be quite honest with you, haven't been much on it.So ive decided to overhaul this place up and over,and turn things around a bit. From now on, im gonna make it my daily diary (i wont get to buy a diary in the month of August!). Jokes apart, i would like my blog to change with me,and what can be better,than making it my personal diary? To start things off, i will change the theme, colour,etc etc...and get back to posting from tomorrow....
