This post is just a wee P.S. to the porcupine stories.  The video shows the critter coming and going in this one place, so I thought I’d take a look to see where her den might be and whether there were any interesting “left-behinds.” And sure enough! Two small quills! I will return to this spot often to see if she leaves or loses any others.  Very cool, if you ask me.

At the base of the big old tree she hugged(?), there is a hole.  Perhaps that’s where she disappears to.  Actually there are two or three holes–front door, back door, side door?
