Last night I heard a noise on my back porch,,, I opened the door then got my cam and took pics through the storm door... There was 2 racoons one was really cool,,, I like felt a bond it and almost went out and petted it... anyway this one was aware of me and was more curious than frightened... I took like 30 pics and they all sucked,,,these are the best ones...
LOL, racoons are everywhere. My folks have a couple that always pop up in her backyard, and that's in a city with over a million people! Well, San Jose more like a giant suburb than a city. I live about a mile closer to the mountains than my folks do and we get all kinds of critters in our yard too. This past summer I caught a one you'd appreciate Skink: a big fat alligator lizard, at least 12" long.
I live in the burbs and do everything I can to attract wildlife... 50 pounds of sunflower seeds is not quite lasting me a week,few years ago that lasted me the whole winter season...
I thought of two different things when I seen the title of this thread lol! Anyways nice shots of the "coons" :D, I love animals.
Animals are really amazing and i always feel connected with my dogs when im stoned. We just lay on my bed and watch tv together. Its great.. but racoons can be dangerous :x
Play on words OM...
check this hummingbird,,,he was in my flower bed every night for 2 weeks or so... I thought it was weird a bird at night... I could not see it till I took a pic... The damn thing looks like he's got camouflage on... lol camouflage and only flies at night...
Gaul darn varmits! Smart little buggers have figured out by jumping on the garbage cans they topple over and the lids will come off, then its dinner time. I have to tie down my garbage cans now..........fn pain in the but mofos ffs!
lol in that second pick he has a stoned look about him... like "what? i'm hungry... fuck off..."
These racoons popped the lid like pro's...
i like animals to.... right next to my mashed pataoes with gravy on top... haha....
rember p.e.t.a.
people eating tasty animals.... yea... i only like animals for their foor value.... i do injoy just watching them though... just i dont like to watch them dig threw my grabage, so that i have to go clean up half eatin pizza crusts... condoms full of cum, and moldy fruit... its not fun...
Yeah,,, the second one is a riot...Quote:

yea.... its what my grandma uses... it dosent taste like kool aid... i found that out when i was a young kid, during the summer, i would go over to her house(like right next door) and she kept pop and juice in the back fridge... so i went pack there, and i saw the "red juice" ment for the humming birds, and i took the top off, and took a big old drink right from the jug, and spit it back into the jug, and went and told my grandma about it, and she laffed at me for drinking the humming bird food, but she smacked me for drinking out of the jug... and she also didnt let me have a pop that day:( :cursing:Quote:

Skink.....dont go pet them. Or do and tell us what happens.....LOL
Aweee how cute, skink!!
every now and then some coons come up from the creek about 2 blocks from my house and get into our garbage can. its big and plastic with a lid so they can't get into it as easily but they love getting the bags that are hanging out, which sucks because it then dumps trash all over the sidewalk. a couple weeks ago there was a big fat one out there and i watched it through the window and it would look at me and just keep going, not giving a shit. the only time it would run is if i would make a move towards the door. pretty smart animals. i thought about letting my dog after it but i know that racoons are notorious for rabies so i decided not to.
thats awesome man
