The victory wreath (reek?) went to the skunk. There was no fighting; the other two just disappeared into the tall grass. S. F.
_____ From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Susan Fast Sent: Friday, June 22, 2012 9:38 PM To: 'CAYUGABIRDS-L' Subject: [cayugabirds-l] Nat. history quiz This evening, at 2120, we saw three adult mammals face off over some fresh compost at our open compost pile. They formed a triangle 4' from each other-a raccoon, a striped skunk, and a gray fox. Question: who was the victor and got the spoils (pun intended)? Answer tomorrow. We've also had a GREAT HORNED OWL perched on large, round hay bales in the field across the road, hunting rabbits. Only light enough to see one strike, which just missed. S. & S.
