Title: A moment with a Raccoon
Post by: Rob'in'To on March 27, 2011, 06:13:37 PM

I love Raccoons despite their antics occasionally around the neighbourhood.  So, having a run in with one this afternoon out in the woods was a treat.

First off with a little peek-a-boo

A little more watching and he moved his way down the tree

Up another tree nearby and into the hole he went

Nighty night buddy!

Super cute!  :D  I love in photo #3 how the left foot looks like a human left hand.

Those first 2 pictures are very cute! Then you realise its a big fat raccoon in the other pictures, and its less cute! Still very cool to get that close.
