Not the greatest picture, I know. Given the subject, you can understand why I photographed through a closed window. Earlier this summer, these seven stinky omnivores took up residency under a concrete slab that leads to our basement. They eventually found and consumed the cat’s food and started sheltering under our outbuildings. One skunk even came from under a shed and stared me down as I attempted to open the shed door. Cute as they were when they were little, they hung around too long, eventually leaving sometime after Thanksgiving. We now have a live trap, suited for such critters, should this happen again.
