Lots of acorns this year from the tree between the house and cellar house…. I had seen a few racoons each night this week so I figured I would see who is actually coming to visit…….. Lots of activity from about midnight on…. Ignore the date/time stamp, I failed to reset the camera before putting it outside….

I may be crazy, but it looks like you have a Koala Bear in your yard in pictures 4 and 6 (right side). Must be the weird cousin of that Trash Panda family.
Man that's a lot of bandits you got there… I have some but have never seen more than two at a time.
Raccoons are cute and fun to watch and we had one as pet almost 40 yrs ago .
But they are destructive and some have no problem having a chicken dinner fresh out of the chicken coop and sad for them that shortens ther life consridable
We still have a few that wonder thru stealing cat food but the few skunks also hanging around seem to keep the racoons in check
Besides, I still rather have the raccoons over the big city human trash prowling around
LOL great pictures
Just before I went to bed last night, I opened the bathroom window and said, "Goodnight boys, don't eat it all tonight…." I shined a light on them and they looked at me and then just kept eating away. Wonder what will show up tonight ! 🙄
Looking forward to the update.
…if you like these critters, get a can of mixed nuts, open the can and set out…they go completely insane over 'em…found this out camping next to the lake in Davie Crocket National Forest here in Texas…left an UNOPENED can of mixed nuts out one night on our camp table, next morning can was laying 30-40 feet from the table …the can had been chewed ALL over with at LEAST 100+ little holes in it… they had chewed one hole just big enough to get to all the nuts, they like nuts…😁…
The record in out yard in 13….. three mamas with little puffballs and a few stragglers…
Holy smokes, you've got more critters than the zoo.
you could have lowered the swing for them………
Nice as you have a nice yard.
Marshmallows Racoons love them.
My wife keeps a bag around just for them
Many years ago she used to make friends after a while. they would rattle the back door if she was not on time .
She has a kind heart when it comes to animinals and even hates it if I do in rats and mice if the cats miss one thank goodness no bears or big cats are around us i think she would try and make a pet of them
remember Ellie May on the Beverly hillbillies my wife is a lot like that
A half dozen 'dog proof' traps will help out with the 'bandits'.
Wow, neat pics, thanks for sharing those. If we put up a game camera, all we seem to capture are the neighborhood cats and dogs.
Wow!!!.......Wild Kingdom!!....…Marlin Perkins would be proud!👍👍
My wife and daughters are the same way. Their latest “friends” are the local flying squirrels, which the girls have trained to come to their calls. The squirrels fly in from the roof and trees to get their nightly snacks.
