Big Raccoon tonight!

Stuck my head out the window this evening because I saw one of the feral cats out there but it was off the deck, and that’s when I saw why! BIG raccoon on the deck eating corn pieces with its little paws. The cat, wisely I think, trotted away to leave the area to the raccoon! I may have a picture to post tomorrow if it turned out!

Night of the Skunk

We have a new visitor out back. Smelled something skunky quite a few mornings but this is the first time we actually observed this skunk out back eating under our feeders! It ate some sunflower seeds apparently and then went sniffing in high speed all over the yard like it was looking for something else? But what?
