A Father's Day Surprise!!

I know this is late but I wanted to share. So we woke up Sunday morning to a surprise! We found this in one of our basement window wells!!
Yes that is a skunk!!! I think when our sprinklers went off that morning it was scared or trying ot move out of the way and fell in. The window well is deep, so Mike put his crawdad trap in it, so it would hopefully climb it and get out. Well it did but 3 hours later. He decided to feed it a little dog food, because it was so tuckered out from digging and digging and scratching on the window trying to get out. That's when he decided to spray. Yes it did go into our basement (which still smells). We decided to finish taking all of our stuff out of the basement (which wasn't much other than our bedroom stuff and entertainment center, chair, fishtank, and fly tying stuff.) So poor Mike had to work all day. But he's such a trooper he didn't mind. However, I have to say that he was cute, it was just a baby and looked so lost and helpless. Anyway here is another picture of it (without the muddy footprints and hard water stain on the window)

Oh man...thats aweful! I hope the stink leaves. We have them out by our house to and the seem to be hit by cars smelling up the air for miles.
