Beautiful Mommy
This is a Raccoon that lives under my hot tub, in our hot tub room. She has seven babies and is seen walking about the yard at any given time of day. The dogs are quite peeved about it too. She seems very trusting and comes right to the sliding door to stick her nose in. I have so many pictures of her that are quite clear and beautiful but for some reason I like these type best. This is when she sits on the stairs to the hot tub in the late afternoon sun, grooming herself. I have a few more that are similar. I thought it showed off her beauty best…........in a different sort of way….......er maybe it’s just me ;)

Thank you dear, that’s what I liked too. I have lived her for 12 years and we have had so many raccoon mommies raise their babies here but this one is so curious about us….....she is a doll.

How cute! Fantastic shot. I quite sure my dogs would be a pit peeved too!

I once had an opossum mom make a nest in a pillowcase clothespin bag that hung next to the house, quite interesting to watch…;-)

I have got to get me a raccoon….this lighting is beautiful.
funkyfacestudio replied
Thanks Von. If only I could get a good shot of her babies. She only takes them out at night so I get green glowing eyes.

I agree with your interpretation…..there is a beautiful and sensitive light illuminating this little lady…... and truly does express more than perhaps the every day well lit photo would….... How lucky you are to have a family of these creatures living in such close proximity…..
