In my front yard

15 minutes ago: 5:30 a.m. on Tuesday morning.

Trotted up the driveway, ate some bugs out of the grass – I’m guessing bugs because they eat bugs – got a drink of water from the front porch water bowl and then trotted around the garage and out into the woods.

I saw as much as I did with time to get the camera and set for low light…because Auggie was on a window sill watching intently so I looked to see what he was watching.

It is a beautiful skunk and they do eat pests and small rodents so we will hopefully stay out of each other’s way.

    Years ago my Uncle Harvey caught a skunk, and put it in his trunk. Never did get the smell out. Alcohol was involved.

    Mike,

    Hey, it was not the skunk … not even a spritz from him/her :) !! And it was in the front yard again this morning when I got up. My yard must have great bugs!

    Wow! It is beautiful! I have never actually seen one but I have smelled one in Ontario.

    Margaret,

    Oh, dear…then you know this particular animal is better seen than smelled!

    You can say that again. I thought I was going to die!
