We saw an old Fox-off tag fluttering in the wind - then another - overall we counted 4 - perhaps we should take a look here.  I was dubious as it was thick bracken, but we went anyway.  A few meters in we found one, not in very good a condition, then another and another, these ones were better. A very lucky find indeed.

Photographed in the Western Districts of Victoria.
