Just woke this little guy up while coming up my driveway, he was resting under the small tree to the left.
He (she) is one of twins that were born this spring.

As Anthony mentioned, these cute critters can be terrorists with your trees, flowers, and landscaping.

@GSS - You're right, opossums are the "good guys".

I've had some problems with raccoons coming onto my porch at night. It was startling as I go out there to smoke at night and don't see them right away. They seem to be fearless too. They are not easily chased off either.

I wish they animals were less afraid of me but living in a city where they know we kill half of them every year they know better. I regularly have 5-20 deer in yard every night. Everyday. The eat my flowers and bushes but that’s ok. Saves me pruning them. I just wish they would use a litter box hihi.

Yup, raccoons are one of the critters that scare me..
I won't forget one time when I was visiting a friend and there was a rabid one foaming at the mouth and hissing all kinds of noises on the street sidewalk and wasn't able to move much.. A cop called it in and was allowed to dispatch it. He pulled out his service pistol and shot it twice right there on the spot. I wasn't able to see these dispatch shots up close as we were told to leave the area.
I probably will never see that again :unsure:

I haven't seen a raccoon in awhile now. I can't say why, but they haven't been around. I don't miss them, though.
