Raccoon, Tree, Baby, Animal

This very young raccoon kept me in its view as I walked around the tree he was sitting in. The was the last of the siblings that were hanging around our yard for a couple of weeks last summer. This was the only one I saw climbing and I was surprised by how well it was able to get up the tree for how small it was.

To add to the adorable nature of this photo, if you look closely, you will a little dirt on the tip of its nose.  They would spend most of their time with their noses buried in the grass, hunting bugs and grubs and who knows what tiny raccoons eat.

You might be able to see the dirt better if you click on the photo.  A larger version will open in a new browser tab.

Bandits In the Bush

Raccoons, Racoon, Pair, Twins

This pair of very young Raccoons were attentive while trying to blend into the scenery. They were photographed under a bunch of day lilies on the front lawn of our rural Kewaunee, Wisconsin home.

We came home from work one evening to find three of these little rascals roaming around our yard.  We never spotted an adult.  A couple of evenings later we saw four of them in at late dusk. (At least we think we did.) Still, never saw an adult.

The little ones could be seen at various times and places, with their noses planted in the grass – foraging for bugs and grubs, I imagine. After a few days we only saw two.  After a few more days, we only saw one. The one stayed around for about a week.

I’m hoping they moseyed through the farm field that surrounds our house to the woods beyond. I don’t believe we have enough variety in our short grass to satisfy the appetites of a growing tribe.

I’m thankful for the short visit because they were so over-the-top cute, way fun to watch and, of course, I was able to get a number of fun photos. Watch for a couple more to show up in the near future.

Baby Bandit Alert

Raccoon, Baby, Young

The epitome of “bright eyed and bushy tailed,” this very young raccoon was discovering a new world.  I found this one – with three other siblings – exploring our yard this spring. We never saw any sign of their mama.

Tucker the Pup

Puppy, Pup, Dog, Cute, Brittany SpanielMeet Tucker, the Brittany pup. He’s a recent addition to my in-laws family. They are rather partial to the breed. This photo was taken when Tucker was about 8-weeks old. He lives in northwest Missouri.

According to Wikipedia…  “The Brittany is a breed of gun dog bred primarily for bird hunting. Although it is often referred to as a spaniel, the breed’s working characteristics are more akin to those of a pointer or setter.”

This image is not any great photographic achievement, but every now and then I feel the urge to post something that ranks high on the “adorable” scale. That’s Tucker.

Forest Friend

Chipmunk, Eastern Chipmunk, Nature, Woodland, Cute
On a recent stroll through the woodlands of rural N.E. Wisconsin, I engaged in a prolonged staring contest with this Eastern Chipmunk.  After viewing this photo, I declared myself the winner.

I spotted several of these little fellows who seemed to freeze the moment they saw me.  I expect, they were hoping if they remained motionless, I wouldn’t notice them.  I wonder how many of them I may have walked past and missed.

When I did see this guy, I stopped and took a photo.  Then, as he remained motionless, I moved in a foot closer…and then another foot…and another – until he no longer could endure my intrusion into his personal space.  Thankfully, he was more tolerant than I expected.
