He was out there last night in his night clothes, flashlight in hand, skulking about looking for a culprit. When I asked what was going on, he mentioned that he thinks he likes those birds for more than just their eggs.

He'd stuffed his entry hole with a dead chicken and trapped himself inside. Or is it possible that was a female skunk? Do girl skunks do bad things like that?Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11586429675286969340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8356815487392618550.post-26347788722445793052010-09-07T10:14:32.955-07:002010-09-07T10:14:32.955-07:00This is one of those times when the comments make ...This is one of those times when the comments make a really great story even better.
