Animals in the Neighbourhood
Well, we can't actually call them pets but we've had a skunk or two in the neighbourhood this week and the smell permeates everywhere. This morning a raccoon decided to visit and crashed around the deck. My husband went to check the crashing, and the raccoon almost came in the door. It was just in time he was able to close it.
Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.
True love is wanting to give to another person without any thought about
who’s getting the better of the deal.
Love always creates, it never destroys. In this lie's man's only promise

Maybe the Racoon wanted to help with the jigsaw
At the moment we have a couple of hedgehogs wandering about (way too early for them) which is not too bad except that the dogs think they are spikey balls and want to play with them

Every so often now the smell from skunks permeate the outdoors, but no actual sign of them.Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.

Re: Animals in the Neighbourhood
I remember skunk smell very well - once smelt, never forgotten.
The hedgehogs decided they'd had enough of being footballs for the dogs and the dogs ended up with a couple of fleas .......... so am glad the little prickly balls have left the area

Re: Animals in the Neighbourhood
It now seems the weather has brightened up for some of the field mice to make an appearance from our neighbour's shed. Not good for the two pups

It's ok - the mice tend to stay under the wooden boards and torment the dogs.

Re: Animals in the Neighbourhood
It's quite fun to what the dogs as they tilt there heads side to side, listening then suddenly pouncing on the panels :-). At least it's better than when the moles come up and they start digging up the garden - again!

Re: Animals in the Neighbourhood
There are problems with deer eating up garden plants as well.

Re: Animals in the Neighbourhood
We don't have the problem with deer, more likely to be footballs from the neighbour kids he he
