Darn Skunks

We had a skunk -- oh well, maybe 3 skunks -- seen in our yard and in both of our neighbors' yards. Hubby took down our bird feeders because he was certain that the bird seed on the ground was attracting the skunks. No skunks have been sighted for about 2 weeks but he refuses to put the bird feeders back up. I am so sad because I just love watching our feathered friends.. and they don't come around when there is no food.
