1. If you ever see a skunk and a brood of little ones - it is so cute.

We were out in the garden one day and saw a movement out of the corner of our eye. It was a momma skunk and 6 little babies, one was solid white, they were adorable. We live in the country and skunks get in our compost pile but seldom bother us - our dogs have been sprayed a couple of times but I think they learned to stay away because it hasn't happened in a long time.
