I have several bird feeders in the backyard that have attracted raccoons. This weekend I was able to snap a few pictures of three of them on my deck. It looks like a family because there is a large one, a medium and a smaller raccoon.

The pictures are blurry because they were moving so much and my camera is old.

These two are the biggest and the smallest ones.

This is the only picture with all three, the smallest on the far left closest to the camera, the dark shadow.

Here the baby is eating from the feeder mounted on the side of the railing. You can kind of see his face.

I thought this is funny because the baby climbed down into my hanging basket and dug for insects.

Here he is about to climb back up from the basket.

Sorry they are such bad quality but it was dark and my camera couldn't keep up. I wanted to share anyway.

Why those little rascals. I've never caught raccoons in the act, but, I know they have visited my back deck as well. They have cleaned out the bird feeder and have tipped the grill over as well You got some great shots!!!!!
