My first truly wild Skunk


A really bad photo, but I wanted to add it to my Wild Animals of Alberta set. I was taken by great surprise when I saw this Skunk zig-zagging through the long grass south of Highway 22X. I had pulled over to take a scenery photo and suddenly saw a black and white tail moving away from me. Couldn't believe it was a Skunk! The only other time I have seen a Skunk in the "wild" was a young one that was hanging around outside the Medicine River Wildlife Centre, north of Calgary, last year.
