Racoon


This cute little guy has been raiding our bird feeders for some time now and during his antics has bent our feeder pole almost beyond repair... grin We have relocated two of his siblings/friends previously, but he kept eluding us. It was a surprising turn of events when I stepped onto the back porch, coffee in hand, and saw him lying calmly in the bottom of the cage. (The last time we tried to catch him, he politely pulled the cage down the slope and sat eating the bait that was in there through the wires!) He was very calm and appeared to know that he wasn't going to be hurt as I photographed him. He has been relocated to a large pond area that has all the trees he could ever hope to climb... not to mention his siblings/friends. Wish I could have kept him. He's too cute for words. If you click on the picture, you will get a much larger one that shows just how cute he is.
