 Shortly after nightfall this little guy regularly visits our deck and peers in through the patio door . He (she ?) is a very dainty eater, chews it's food thoroughly, does'nt eat more than a small cat and carefully grooms it's whiskers after eating.
Would probably be a good candidate for a Telus commercial .

I saw a dead one this past week just west of Col Sam Smith.  Not nice that it was dead, but I rarely see them so I thought it might be worth noting.  He was very big.
