Description
"Garden Visitor" by Debbie Oppermann. Well, I had a shock when I went out on the deck to check out the garden one fine summer morning. This striped Skunk was wandering around the veggies and herbs. It was just slowly checking things out and every so often it would start chomping on something and start digging. It was actually cute but totally unwelcome in my backyard in Guelph Ontario Canada. I was just happy that it didn't feel threatened as I took some pictures from the deck and far enough away, as I would definitely not be too happy to get sprayed. When it ventured to the far back of the yard behind the Spruce trees I lost track of it so I assumed it squeezed through the fence boards and was investigating someone else's yard.

Sweet capture. I once saved a tiny baby skunk from the road. It's entire family had been hit by a car or cars. They can't spray when they are tiny kitten size so I took him home and cleaned him up and fed him until one day I found out he was old enough to spray! After showering and brushing my teeth (he sprayed me on my chest area) my husband and I took him to the Appalachian Trail to set him free and away from vehicles!
