You have 3 raccoons raiding your birdfeeder and you name them Moe, Larry, and Curley. Curley is not in this photo, but last night he was up on the feeders, shaking the seeds out. They were quite a team!

Oh yes Vanessa!! I so relate!! I've got coons too raiding my bird feeders too! A little larger for sure. I put out cheapest cut up apples and they will leave my feeders alone. If I forget, they raid the feeders. Possum too! Don't you love country life?? :)

We aren't in the country anymore but we have rabbits and squirrels who like to raid the feeders all the time. I think we have a raccoon who enjoys it too some nights.

Great picture! I've given up on my fight with the squirrels, too many of them, so I feed on the ground and put out enough seed for all. Cardinals, blue jays, doves, and brown thrashers are ground feeders, so they get their share, and they are among my favorite birds to watch.

Awww…I love it!! Squirrels will leave our feeders alone but only because they get fed in a different place! Lol.

I love our squirrels! I can't get around to pick up the pecans anymore so the squirrels do it for me. The down side is we have to dig up the little trees that grow from the ones they miss. We have a resident possum -- love that
guy, and we had to enclose our little goldfish pond to keep the raccoons from catching the fish. Then Smokey the cat caught them but he was a catch and release fisher cat. Unfortunately he didn't release them back in the pond but usually on the kitchen floor.

Oh man Vanessa! What little stinkers. They are so cute. Why do they have to be so mean and naughty?
