Wild visitors-Red Fox

In the past spring and fall we have seen Red Fox in our woods. Mostly in the late afternoon hunting near the house seeming to not care if we were outside. Or at dusk coming up from the woods being very quiet and stealth. One night early last spring we were awakened by an unusual loud clicking sound.  Three foxes were chasing after each other in the back yard. Dashing over and under the deck, around trees and the house. What would that sound comunicate?  I hoped they would stick around for the summer but fox must hide well because they didn't show themselves to us again until fall. I have wandered the woods wondering where the den is. This past Monday I was watching with my camera, four deer groom each other when something sent them dashing off. Two foxes were chasing around the house. They seemed to have attention deficit as they raced for one spot to the other.  Luckily to have camera in hand, I shot these photos from inside the house.  I assume this is a male and female? How can one tell?
