Great set of images Ted. Raccoons always seem to give you such interesting poses.

Love the character these guys have! Last two are my pics here.
We have one that loves my leftovers and finds his way into my trash barrel and I often find him sleeping in there in the morning

. However one smarty finds a way to turn on the outdoor faucet of which I have no problem with but fails to turn it back off

Great shots Ted, enjoyable series
