Des yeux percants……De toute Beauté *************

Merci Danielle !

Deslumbrado !
Bello ejemplar!

Oh poor little thing - I'm glad you looked after him

Thankyou Jenny !

They are very very independent at that size and stage !

They are adorable, but so destructive.

Thankyou Esther. !

But.... they simply are not destructive here !!

These are not urban raccoons... these are shyer country cousins. In 4 years here I have has ONE broken feeder.. and that was old and on its way out. Yes.. they will take suet and seed balls.. so I dont put it out.

My human (well I hear a rumour he is human) neighbour is more asinine and grief than ANY wildlife is....

I make one other exception... the Copperhead.. those I loath as they are mean and nasty and will charge a human. Snakes per se I dont have a real problem with..., Copperheads I do !

What a lovely capture... I would worry also !!! What are they ?

Thankyou Marj !

These are raccoons... and very independent little souls !

Wonderful portrait! It looks wary and afraid.

Thankyou Martha !

She was fine.. they come and go frequently ! I am not normally out there with a flash in their faces though !

Sure a wonderful capture, Pam ! ******

Thankyou Christiane !

You wonder what she's thinking up there, watching this strange thing with the weird light that pops up every now and then. It's all a puzzle.

Thankyou Clint !

Yes !! I was thinking that at the time ! I was also talking to her !

Very cute subject and you captured it so well. Brilliant Pam Regards Tess

Thankyou Tess !

What a little darling! Fabulous photo!

Thankyou Eunice !

Delightful! !

Thankyou TH !

The eyes get really to good effect. Greetings, Heinz.

Thankyou Heinz !

Très beau ce regard de renard

Merci Roland !

They are as clever too !

So funny... :-))

Thankyou Udo !

:))

Hi Pam, so as he looks tentatively here, I wish you good progress in your future life ...
Greetings, Udo
I know similar situations from my Wife...

Beautiful captured!

Awwww, what an adorable baby!!! :)
Interestingly, I know the area has plenty of coons, skunks, possums, but we never see them (smell the skunks sometimes though!)...and yet, as a kid in the heart of San Francisco, I saw these guys regularly! They live on Mt. Davidson, which backs up to my dad's house and is home to all sorts of animals (though no large animals like deer).

I ACTUALLY THINK THEY LIKE THE EASY PICKINGS IN A CITY
