We had a pair of dove that would feed in our back yard every eve. One disappeared, and they mate for life, so now we just have the one coming every eve. Has a nest nearby, somewhere.

Skunks are everywhere around here, been problems with rabies in those recently. Was so bad last year, had one chase the dog, after that I started loading the gun with buckshot when I left the truck untill I got to the little island I hunt from.
