Another foxy side shrine of Katsuta Jinja, this one is located right next to the previous Inari shrine. This one does not have an official name as far as I can tell, but it's probably also an Inari shrine, what with there being 20 tiny porcelain foxes, as well as a pair of tiny stone foxes here.

Aaand, we're back in the Tottori prefecture again. This is a side shrine located in the back of the grounds of the big Katsuta Jinja (勝田神社 "Victory Field Shrine"), which is located just north of the Yonago station in the fork between the Sanin Main Line and the Sakai Line heading out to Sakaiminato. Four life-sized stone foxes - two of which feature Shimenawa-collars - sit watch in front of this shrine, and another four dozen or so porcelain foxes ranging from small to tiny in size are clustered around the heart of the shrine.
