This is the raccoon that was shunned as a baby, now she is a Mother. This Mother doesn't let the baby out of her sight for a minute. They both have sort of strange eyes. Not sure what their story is. They just have each other. I haven't seen these two in a while now. I wonder where they go, and what they are doing. Anyways.. The Mother has those penetrating eyes.
Here are a few of those "pesky" facts about these masked bandits..
Raccoons are very agile. They climb trees well, moving forward or backward on their way up or down the tree. They are one of few animals which can descend a tree headfirst. They can also drop, unharmed, 35 to 40 feet. They are fast runners (15 mph) and excellent swimmers. If cornered, raccoons are ferocious fighters. Raccoons are also know for their excellent night vision and keen sense of hearing.Young raccoons are preyed upon by foxes, bobcats, owls, and eagles, but they most commonly die from automobiles. Bandit-masked raccoons are a familiar sight...
Capturing a moment in time, is one of the best emotions. I love seeing something thru the lens and holding it near you as long as you can. I like for that image to be caught by surprise. A pure emotion. That to me is usually the most interesting. Anyways.... Photography is my medium. I do enjoy photographing those "Funny Animals" I see along the way........Laughter gets you thru a lot of hard times...I appreciate you taking the time to see what I see..... As you might have noticed I have never written a biography about myself for over 2 years. I figured I had better write one now. I'm definitely not going to write my "BIO" in the third person, so that I sound more important than I really am. Should I warn you that I have "run on"...

Kym,is it unusual do you know for raccoons to be so friendly to humans? I can't think of any wild animals here that would venture so close up time and again. Over time squirrels can become tame and even eat out of a person's hand but it takes a lot of patience.Foxes come up quite close, but not in the same way as these furry friends of yours. I imagine it has to be something about you that they sense as we said before.They know they are safe and welcome! Also,I'm curious how you know which is which ! I suppose it's like having identical twins,you soon recognize the differences! Just love your raccoon repertoire ! v/f
Kym Backland replied:
Jane, No I didn't know that about raccoons. They have lived in these woods for years and years, and I guess they just feel safe here. But it's far from safe, Eagles, Coyotes, Dogs. Thanks for your novella notes and your interesting comment Jane!
