Skunks are nocturnal and they mostly scrounge for insects or mice during the night. I see one most often early in the morning on my way to work on a Tuesday when there are garbage bags out on the curb. Sometimes skunks will rip one open and rummage through it for a meal if they can't find their usual food.
We're hoping he'll venture out tonight and won't come back because of the one-way door.

Do U have a night/day camera to watch the door?

Nope, no camera.  We are letting the skunk decide when he wants to come out. No little footy prints in the dirt this morning so he is still hiding.  The one-way door hasn't been tripped. He's going to have to venture out at some point to feed. I saw a huge slug oozing its way along the dirt near the door, maybe that will be enough for the skunk to come out.

We have a white sparrow that comes in our garden, apparently very rare, 1 in a million it comes with around 20 brown sparrows. Its amazing to see. I've tried to photo it but it must be camera shy  every time my camera appears he goes behind a pot

I love hedgehogs,haven't seen any for a while

White animals are lucky to survive in the wild being obvious to predators.  Treasure him 

[Penguin99]

He's been around for a few weeks, doing well. Yeah they don't camouflage well, I didn't see him for about a week then back yesterday

Locally we had a flock of rooks - some had white wing and tail feathers.  This went on for several years genetically passed down probably.  Haven't seen them since about 2003.

There's a abnormal plumage survey going on which includes leucistic birds. We have a couple of crows here with leucistic plumage. https://www.bto.org/our-science/projects/gbw/gardens-wildlife/garden-birds/behaviour/plumage/leucism

Ladybirds!   Everywhere 

Whether it's because I flung open all the windows wide earlier and they have flown out of the edges, I moved 8 from the bathroom and 5 from the our bedroom.  I can see Masses flying around or crawling up walls and windows  .  better than the birds I suppose
