Big excitement this week is that my trailcam captured a raccoon very early Monday morning. I don’t know if it is a Rocky or a Racquel. If you have any clues let me know.
And a short ten second video. I haven’t seen him since so I guess he was not impressed with what we had on offer on the patio which was nothing.
Also exciting is that Rascal our pomeranian graduated from physical therapy. He got injured in November and has been getting acupuncture and PT since then. The progress really has been remarkable. I thought we would never be able to walk him again but now we do it every day. Just a mile or so because he is still building up strength and stamina. The staff posed him in a graduation cap and he loved it. He is such a diva.
I saw Lizzie grooming herself the other day and getting big mouthfuls of fur so Heather got out the grooming tool. Lizzie loved it. We are trying to avoid hairballs.
A robin all puffed up in this fuzzy shot to try and keep warm.
A bird in our birdbath.
A female cardinal at the feeder.
And a bright colored male.
And both of them in this ten second video.
That’s about it for critterworld in our neck of the woods. I’m linking with Eileen’s Saturday’s Critters. Come join in!!
I had to laugh at the expression on Rascal’s “graduation” photo. Your racoon looks so small compared to the ones we have here. I wouldn’t like to meet one of ours on a dark night!
Hello Alan,
You do have a nice variety of birds and critters in your post. I am so glad your Rascal is recovering and is doing well, great news. I hope Rocky the raccoon has moved on. Love the photos and videos.
Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Take care, enjoy your weekend. PS, thank you for leaving me a comment.
A fun post, happy to learn Rascal has graduated and over his injury (she certainly has a sweet expression on her face). Lizzie must love her combing sessions. Also enjoyed your trail com photos and videos. Amazing what they pick up, like your raccoon. I’m thinking of putting mine on grass level to try and pick up some night animals.
A nice variety of critters. Congratulations to Rascal. Wish Sierra liked to be groomed. Instead, my house is furry.
The racoon around here usually stay down around the river.
Coffee is on and stay safe
Uy lindo mapache y me alegro por tu perrito.
Your critters — wild and tame — are all such fun. It is lovely to know that PT works on our four-legged friends just as well as it seems to to on all the humans I know who have used it (after knee problems especially).
