We're Hiding; You Can't See Us

About 6:30 this morning, we discovered a pair of baby racoons hiding in a corner of Mike and Patty's front porch. Clearly, they were frightened, thinking – hoping – that if they couldn't see us, we couldn't see them. There was a mad scramble to be the bottom, most invisible, most tucked-in-the-corner racoon.

They stayed in the corner all day, by early evening they were becoming a little more curious, probably hungry, thirsty, maybe a bit desperate. When I approached with the camera, the more adventurous of the two turned as if to say, "What chu lookin' at, Punk?

We decided to leave them alone and around 9:00 P.M, when it was getting dark, they wandered off.

Thus ends an interesting day at the place already known as "Racoon Ranch."
