Looks like fox to me with a few cubs involved judging by the hair colour. I definately know what killed that tree, from the marks and evidence left behing it looks like a Greater Paranged Alfredo.

Ciao Alfredo,

the fruit looks like wild strawberries, and unripe raspberries ?

Nice part of the world you live in.

Ciao! Fruits were wild strawberries, cherries (the great tree), and Morus Alba it's the name of the white ones (don't know in english:-(

White Mulberry

Thanks!
These are "old" small fruits, I mean nobody today eats them...instead they are edibles, and good to taste, at least as I'm feeling...they were very popular in Italy in earlier '900, when silk was an important national product.
Don't know, maybe the same in UK?

Wild or alpine strawberries? Can't remember but I find them nicer than shop ones. Although ones eaten at a PYO are nicer still (surrepticiously sneaked I mean fallen into my mouth is most satisfying, you'd be surprised how often it happens).

Up here I'm itching for bilberry time. It'll be soon in the Lakes. A few weeks ago (last time I've been out in Lakes due to hols in even hiller areas) they were just about forming in a few spots. Just not ripe. I reckon soon though.

We names them wild strawberries. And yes, taste is MUCH better than the shop ones! :-)
