Earlier today as I was driving to town, I saw the on-coming traffic had stopped, crossing the highway was mother skunk and her 6 babies, 5 of whom were sticking close to mom...#6 took his own sweet time catching up, and eventually joined his sibs and a very anxious mom. This was such a delightful and charming site but then I saw the faces of all who had witnessed this parade, we had all clearly enjoyed our little and relatively safe encounter with these cute but highly- feared varmints!
Native Americans (see 5/20 post#2) might suggest that since this event happened directly in front of me, in such an odd place (major highway) and time (skunks are nocturnal) as well as it being my first time to ever see a skunk family that perhaps the skunk is another one of my totem animals!! First the crow, now skunks. I won't attempt a guess at what may come next! Click on screen and enjoy a little Pepe Le Pew...I guess I'll go do some reading...
