No matter how many times it is explained to Rocky that he is NOT a bird -- Does not have a beak. Does not have three toes. No wings. Can't cluck -- he remains unconvinced and shows up every evening to raid the bird feeders.
He also ensures that we keep any garbage locked down tight. Those cute little toes? They can pry their way into just about anything.
He'll be off into hibernation pretty soon, however, and then the real birds, the ones without bandit masks, can re-possess their feeders.
Yeah, we didn't think he was too cute when he pooped on the front porch of our cottage either. :-)
ReplyDeleteWait, can I say "poop" on your blog?
Anyway, once we stopped leaving snacks out for the chipmunks and deer, the raccoon surprises stopped.
