"The Stare"

Every afternoon from about 4:00pm onwards, we are subjected to 'The Stare".  The raccoon (who we call Ricky) comes out from under the shed - where her cubs are - and  stares at the house until I take food out.  If that doesn't work she comes close the back door to hurry me along!!!!

Raccoon digging for ???

The raccoons spent a long time digging around the seed trays - can't quite see what they are eating - but there seems to be a lot of it!! I suspect insects - but I do wonder about cicadas????

We also are now seeing a steady stream of hummingbirds.

Raccoon and Fox.....

The raccoon wasn't too sure about the fox in the beginning - but they shared in the end.
