Awwwwwwww!!!!!! Pt.II. Like my baby squirrel shots, these little fellows must have just come out of their den, they could still barely walk straight... And blind as bats (I was standing about 10ft. from them). Enjoy "little stinkers"....:D

The kids...

    Whew! I thought I smelled something...

    You are brave getting that close to the babies. Just imagine if mommy spotted you. After you scrubbed yourself in tomato juice for 5 days and were relieved to finally have the smell on your own body reduced, you'd be horrified to find out you could never bring that camera anywhere near your face again.

    Anyway - thanks for taking the risk - cute pichas...

    Hi Skippy :D ,

    It's funny you say that, because I've always thought Australia had the coolest animals (Roos, Koalas, Platypus, plus great white sharks!). Glad you enjoyed. thumb.gif

    actually they make fantastic pets. I did have a photo of a nice couple with their pet skunk.. but I can't seem to find it now. I got to pet it... very friendly. You just gotta have the stinky parts removed rolleyes1.gif

    nice shots AJ!!! funny how baby skunks always group single file like that.

    I guess when my mom was a teenager, she had a skunk as a pet (with the stink stuff removed). She still says that was one of her favorite pets.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    How cute!
    A friend had a "de-stunked" skunk as a pet. I guess they don't bite then?

    Anyway, adorable pictures of something I usually run away from, even when they are roadkill.

    I like the one of the little one poking it's head out the fence, even though it may not be one of the "best" ones... :): :): :):
