One week left of the S60R being on the PCP rifle so I'm making the best of it before the 256 res thermal goes back into service.

You can't really tell but that used to be a muskrat. Hadn't shot my 6.5 in like two weeks so I used it instead of the .22.
Someone's dog got quilled while they visiting last week so I have been on the lookout for these guys. I heard the weirdest sound, like a cross between jackrabbit distress and bird squawking and then saw this monster.

I was out about an hour before sunrise and got 2 more skunks. That’s 35 for the year on my 80 acres. I use an AR15 with a 20” 204 barrel and a Dnt hydra 640 thermal. I have 13 coyotes so far this year on my land. I have not seen any coyotes for 5 weeks but the skunks just keep coming. Coyotes should move back in before long.
35 seems to be a LOT of skunks! I got one last fall and the hardwood bottom I shot it in smelled like the upstairs of a frat house after a football game weekend for what seemed like a month

The bottom of what? Your bottom?
I pick them up and haul them to the far end a half mile away. When the wind is wrong the smell is bad at the house otherwise. It’s a lot of skunks but 13 is really a lot of coyotes on 80 acres. Several years ago we had skunks under our house and trapped 13 before we got rid of them.
Had just put the chickens away and was off to coyote hunt when I saw this guy not far away.
Got a lock on him with the laser and "Fox 1!"
The coyotes were all on my neighbor's property who doesn't care for hunting so I watched them for a bit then gave a few coyote yips on the Foxpro and they went nuts for a half hour.

17 yards with my .308 pushing the 168gr TMK to 2730fps.
