For the past couple of weeks the female raccoons have been arriving early and dominating the patio. They drive all the males away in preparation for when the babies arrive. Some are more pregnant than others, but all of their appetites appear strong.
I go raccoon to raccoon and use their names so viewers can learn whose who. Momma Moira has reclaimed to back step again and is asserting herself as queen of the pack. She's the most senior of them all and it shows with the battle wounds on her ears. Even though she is so tough with the others, she allows me to pet her and look her over.
On this night 26 raccoons arrived and filled up the patio area. For the past few nights I've kept the lights off and tried not to draw any attention to my backyard. I hang a large tarp on the clothes line between me and a neighbor so I can interact with these raccoons at ease.
I'm going through the food fast lately trying to give these future mothers all the food they need. If you'd like to help, please click the "$ Super Thanks" icon and choose an amount right for you. All proceeds go to the raccoons only!
