Sunday Stills: In the Dark

The challenge this week for Sunday Stills was to take a photo in the dark.   Chance and I ventured out.  He was on lead..because a few weeks ago we had a skunk in our yard after dark.

Chance and the Bluestem

This is Chance and the Bluestem that is on the east side of the house.

Chance and the Scarecrow

I got some of those solar lights and a scarecrow to scare off the skunk.  Chance will remain on lead after dark until it snows and the skunks go into hibernation.  We don’t need our Border Collie herding anymore skunks:)

  2. Lots of skunk action going on here too. If Chance didn't have white on him you wouldn't see him in the dark!!. :)

  5. Nice to see Chance- looks like he is taking his skunk-watching job quite seriously. The leash is a good idea.

  6. Chance is still looking for that varmint.....yes they sometimes take their herding instinct a little far....or maybe a little close.

  7. Our blue heeler found a skunk a couple weeks ago. Good idea to leash him.

  10. Poor Chance, but I agree with your solution to the problem, as I don't care for skunk cologne on our doggies either!! Wonderful night-time shots -- I love how Chance's pose is so similar to his pose in your header photo. :)

  11. You got some excellent pics in the dark. I don't blame you with keeping Chance on a leash. Not every black and white animal is one you want to have close.

  12. The curiosity of the border collie is always up and running.
