...the first one is my fav! Excellent!
Time for a little Rupert story this Sat morning.....got to go with the pictures!
I have a family of raccoons that comes around every night, and they have for about 10 years....every year bringing their offspring in the Spring or early Summer. I know them all well, and make sure they always have plenty to eat. A happy raccoon is a non destructive raccoon!
This year one of the cubs is the little runt of the bunch. He has to fight for his share of the food and often gets shoved out of the bunch. He's not dumb and usually comes running to me for a handout, and he gets it. Lately, he has discovered that if he hangs around until daylight (they are very nocturnal animals, seldom seen in daylight) he will get our leftover breakfast food, or at least some treats.
This morning before giving him his meal, I got a few shots of him wandering around the yard. I was barely awake, so they are not the best shots, but you can get a peek at him. Cute little guy and so friendly. These are very intelligent little animals and are all play once they get something in their little bellies. Their little hands are like ours and they can open jars or even doors if they can reach them......fun to watch, fun to shoot!
"I heard something....breakfast on its way?" "Maybe its down that way?" "I see the door opening! Breakfast!" "Great bacon & eggs! Thanks.....see you next time!"
@Eaglem -
BTW Squirrels say they will trade you four young raccoons and a bird feeder they stole from a neighbor for Hubble. Same offer goes to @LeRolls for one of his girls.
I told them not to hold their breaths too long hoping for a deal!
Regards!
