Aerie Visitor

I mentioned last night that we had a raccoon visitor on the deck an hour or so before it got dark. This critter made itself right at home and helped itself to the sunflower seeds in the tray mounted on the deck rail.

Getting comfy.

Saying grace.

Prepared to stuff face.

Stuffing face.

I let it eat for a little while before going out to see if it would demonstrate normal cautionary behavior when confronted (i.e. run away). It did which made me happy as it meant I didn't have to shoot it. As I said, nothing worse than having a rabid raccoon around.
