They eat seeds at my house too.

My moms house in CA brings in skunks and turkeys with spilt seeds

Baby skunks are adorable to watch play

Another idiot amongst us
Driving down Colonial Drive in Orlando. Got behind this car that was transporting some sort of large table in trunk. Had to take a second look. The table wasn't tied down. Just some lady sitting on it in the trunk doing 35 MPH. Are people really that stupid?

I think that's called a retorical question. Locally, we have a mother in jail for having her three or four children riding on the roof and hood because "their clothes were wet from swimming". One died after the car had to do a quick stop. Does that answer your question?

I blame Florida for everything. Laughing emoticon All the new laws about pain meds etc. I went on my nightly walk and when i hit our beach park i saw this. At least whomever hit this lady's car left their phone number but i was gobsmacked when i saw what was under the bumper. The woman said that pissed her off more than being hit.

Are you sure it is a table? It almost looks like a daybed.

Not that what it is matters, it is still very dumb to sit in the trunk and hold it. Rope is very cheap.

I'm not sure what it is. Called it a table for a lack of a better description. T'here was not one rope holding it down. Just the lady sitting on it holding on to the forward trunk edge. Hope they weren't planning on going over any speed bumps.

I think this might actually be a 'harvestman', not a true spider. I believe that they are 'omnivores', so may be eating the pear.

Don't believe them when they tell you the camera is "for research purposes only" I guess huh?

Hope your boobs are doing well Judy. You can't really call him a stranger after all the handling & squishing though can you?
