hey Coyote. Nice avie!!! Haven't seen that one before.
Thank you
I'm still in mourning for my animated popcorn eating critters but..this'll do![]()
Did you take that photo at what we laughingly call our compost heap?
Its really a feeding station for the raccoons and foxes.
I'm sure Czar smells them and objects to their visits. He makes his feelings known about it by peeing off the edge of the deck onto where he knows the critters were last night and every night.
I don't agree with feeding wildlife but we do want to compost ...
And yeah, that's a very cute avie.
No, it was just a photo I found - but we do have racoons around, rummaging under the bird feeders at night![]()
We have to bring our feeders in evvery night.
One night last summer, we watched a juvie raccoon hanging off the hummingbird feeder, sugary nectar running down his body. I imagine he had a fun bath later.

Yeah, except it reminds me of the family that came and ate every single persimmon on my tree......so they like pizza too?
I don't think there's anything they don't like.
And, like Coyote said, they get the spilled bird seed. We try not to encourage them but its fun watching them working to scoop up loose seed in those little hands.
What I really love is getting a glimpse of our foxes. We have a Great blue heron (Gilbert) who jealously guards our boat dock. The foxes like to lay in the sun on the dock and we can hear Gilbert (or maybe Sullivan) squawking at them. We've seen tracks in the snow that made us think they might have had a little set to over who owns the dock and it sure as heck isn't us!
