Oh..we sometimes have rabies reported,too..

I have had 4 or 5 raccoons before in previous years after the sunflower seeds ...The once lame one got me into the catfood habit and started coming close. I have been cautious...but delighted to be so near. I never try to feed from my hand or seek to touch..though it is tempting. She will stand up and peer in as if wondering why no more food..LOL
They do seem curious about movement in the house.

I’m jealous. ;) I leave food out, like the fruit and it could be raccoons that have it at night. I have seen possum at the base of the feeder at night too.

In the other house I had a very brave squirrel come right on the deck for nuts. Boy, did I ever want to give that little guy a hug. LOL I kept a safe distance also. He did too, I could tell.

When they look in for food ...that is absolutely adorable! :) The squirrels would do that when they ran out of food, again at the other house. I hope they get use to me like that here. It will take time.
