One of my baby skunks.
My husband went fishing this weekend and he saw seven bears. This was his first bear sighting in Canada, and he also got to see loads of baby bears, so that made up for the fact that he didn’t catch any fish.
I feel like I am really starting to get used to having wildlife around me, all the time. It started off with our frequent trips to Brackendale, up in the mountains, to visit friends. We’ve spotted huge bald eagles, seals, Canada geese, and giant salmon, not to mention the frequent bear visits in their backyard. Then I realized my backyard seems to be home to a lot of wildlife. We have several raccoons who pass through, two beehives on the back porch (which have now been removed), and a family of skunks. My Mom asked me why I hadn’t posted anything about the skunks yet, so I decided to post this little video of me talking to one of the baby skunks. There are three of them, and a Mom, living somewhere in or near my backyard. The only downside to this video is you can’t see how small they are. They are tiny, the size of a small rabbit. Adorable. And they love me. They hiss at my husband, but they love me.
