It reminds me that wild things still try to find a home in my suburban neighborhood. In the past few years I have come to realize that I love the smell of skunk!

I have to admit though, that even with the book in my hand, standing staring down at the track or the scat rarely do I get it right. Husband of course always gets 100%!. Funny about dogs and wild things. Our beloved Mocha, he of the Aussie blue merle breed once went head to head with a raccoon. His maniacal barking soon turned to shrieks and howls of pain once the racoon attached itself to his lower jaw. Husband played whack-a-mole with the raccoon until the raccoon gave up and ran into the woods. You would think he might have learned something from that-not so. Next year was the beaver incident. Oy.
