Mama raccoon and two juveniles explored our garden last night.
This isn't the first time raccoons have knocked over one of the planters on the wall, but it is the first time they made it a family affair..😅

I had a huge family (maybe two?) climb my pear tree when there was fruit. Late at night. My bedroom window is level with the tree canopy, and I was looking straight out the window into a band of marauding racoons!

@BlueStateBabe You had a front row seat! I'm jealous. 😁

I sometimes hear them at night in the trees out back. They can be an inconvenience at times but I can't really be all that mad. They're just doing what raccoons do.

@ADignorantium

One of my grandfathers used to buy cheap dog food, individually bag it, and hand it out to raccoons at night. Even videotaped it to share with others. They would come to his back door, literally looking for a hand out.

Not so sure it was a good idea, but my grandmother had died, and he was lonely, so he became a "benefactor" of the local wildlife.
