Description
These raccoons are responsible for a lot of sleepless nights - I shot this in the middle of the night one night in early August-through the sliding glass window on my Mom's back porch...just after I shot it...the larger one stood up and growled at me, loud enough to hear it through the window - that was not the first time either - one night there was two adults and five youngsters all walking along the top of the back fence...like an idiot, I went out with my camera expecting to get a nice image - instead I got growled at and she meant business! I wish this was a better image, but had to use a flash and hold the lens right against the window to get any image at all....

I love shots of raccoons but am thankful that I don't have to put up with their nocturnal visits....
Joyce Dickens replied:
Hi Al; I hear them every single night now, but I am able to sleep past their visits; thanks so much! :-)

Great shot Joyce! Especially through a window! L/F!
Joyce Dickens replied:
Hi Meg, I took several and this was like the fourth I think; the others were not usable...thanks so much! :-)
