Mephitidae
I saw this skunk on our property today at the edge of the woods. He was digging in the dirt for insects and grubs and it didn't seem to bother him that I was taking pictures of him. I saw another skunk that might have been his mate, about 100 ft. From this one. Mating season is late February or early March.

Thank you Janelle!!
Sooo jealous, You! Great job finding and photographing this fellow. I've seen them at night but have never been lucky enough to find one out during the day and in snow no less. Bravo, You!!
You are getting quite a collection!!
Great spotting! You so rarely see these guys during the day! Would love to get a picture of one myself...from a good safe distance! ;)
