Look Close

Posted on August 24, 2011 by Dayphoto

A Momma and her two babies ran right in front of the pick-up. As they scurried across the road and over into the field I was able to get out my camera.

Pretty cool.

At a distance they are really cute. I live on a creek (no water this summer) and I have skunks, raccoons and opossums occasionally on my back porch. I’m glad you had your camera!!

Cute little ‘stinkers’! Glad they didn’t share their perfume with your car. Looks like a pretty, clear day.
Blessings!

I would have to say it is a good thing you were in the truck! The further away the shot the better 😉

Glad you missed hitting them. I swerved around one on rural road last night.

It looks like either you were up early or they were up late. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a skunk family like that wandering along a road. Cool photo alright.

Stinky pewies……we have some across the road and the dogs haven’t bothered them yet. I hope they don’t either.

We have them here —and sometimes, they will let out their horrible stink during the night.. It’s so strong (if we have our windows opened) that that smell will wake us up sometime… YUK…. We’ve also had them on our deck –but luckily, no stinks…. They are pretty –but I would just assume they stay AWAY.
Hugs,
Betsy

I’m glad you got them with your camera rather than the car. We seem to find (and smell) skunk roadkill just about every time we head into town.

It’s been a while since we’ve had skunks. Wonder why?
I love them…but I’m strange.
