Blowing off the leaves

It's probably not very Green, especially since our electricity comes from a nuclear power plant, but I used a leaf blower to clear leaves and debris off our moss today, so that the rain would reach it more easily.

Is it the same fox?

On Halloween night, my younger son and I saw a fox, red at its head and extremities but with a gray body. I don't if it is the same one we saw before.
