Fox Stew

I came across this fox cub, freshly knocked down, yesterday.

You'll notice the willow withy to suspend her, instead of cord, using clove hitches.

With an animal like fox, it's essential to be confident it's not been poisoned.

With roadkill, in the warm summer months, hygiene-wise, I often just use the legs, and maybe the backstrap.

Food safety-wise I like to fry initially, slow and long.

Then add water and veg, and simmer slow and long.

Making a stew means boiling your meat, and this is  a good way to ensure any bacteria is gone.

Absolutely delicious; I'd forgotten how good fox cub can be.

Looking forward to our upcoming autumn bushcraft training courses.
Have 2 day, plus 5 day, courses coming up in Oct.
Also a 3 day survival skills course coming up in Sep.
Both completely beginner friendly.

Thanks Kelly Kettle :)

Huge thanks to Kelly Kettle for sending this brilliant looking kelly kettle down to West Cork, for our bushcraft and survival training.

Can't wait to get stuck into using it!

Bioluminescence In West Cork :)

As well as amazing plankton bioluminescence in the bay, we also have bioluminescent glowing mushrooms in the oak and pine woods here, which I've seen occasionally, while sleeping wild on bushcraft courses - tiny delicate glowing lights

Not sure if these guys glow, but shows how damp and rainforest-esce it's been lately, these have started sprouting in the paddle store!
