Hi All,
This morning Lynda looked out the window and saw this skunk making his way 
through the dew soaked yard. Of course I had to have a picture so I went for 
the camera. I lost sight of the skunk during that time, but I knew it was 
heading in the direction of the large flowerbed in the front yard. For a few 
moments, when I got outside, I couldn't find it. I was sneaking up the walk 
when suddenly it popped out from under the snowball (viburnum) bush right in 
front of me. Its tail went up and it went into defense mode. I took a couple of 
quick photos as I fled. For a second I thought it was going to chase me, but it 
watched me go then went across the driveway and into the bushes. Here are a 
couple of photos.
