That’s how we have always seen them when inside that hole, just peeking out. My goodness, the pictures I have of one of those litters! (2017 was my first year, then 2019, too.)

The 3 babies were adorable as they tussled around in the nest. Once we even saw them get into a baby brawl, and one tumbled right out of the tree! From at least 30 feet high! Landed in a bush and climbed right back up and got a spanking, followed quickly by cuddles from Mama. It was hilarious!!

I don’t mind the raccoons in my yard. I do mind them coming onto my deck. I’ve decided I can no longer offer bird seed from my deck. It’s a food source that the raccoons are keeping an eye on.
