p.1 #1 · Relaxing in the tree tops...

This guy walked across my yard and climbed up a tree and began putting on a show for me. He has become a rather frequent visitor much to my dismay. Raccoons are not as cute as they appear, they can become quite a problem especially if the neighbor feeds them. Anyway, here's a few shots I was able to get before he left.

Nice set Louie, he looks pretty confident in his surroundings. Maybe you need to make him feel less confident...

Looks like it is living the good life and enjoys posing for you.

Thanks Eric, I do my best but that isn't good enough I guess. And I don't feed them!

Thanks for commenting. I'm not fond of having raccoons in my backyard but when they put on a bit of a show for me I'll tolerate them.

These are some of the best Coon images I've ever seen! Nice work Louie!
My wife keeps "accidentally" dropping a little extra bird seed on the ground when she fills her feeders and every night the little bandit comes in to "entertain" our little Westie.

Thanks Gary, and he sure didn't act like the typically raccoon I see in my backyard.
