What evil lurks.....

Aha! Now I know who the culprit is!  The one who knocks the feeders off...the one who is responsible for all those broken feeders! You little rascal.,.,you devil you....

I was having my shower and happened to look out the window (which is in the shower stall and happened to be opened)  and saw something moving under the feeders....something bigger than a squirrel or dove...Drat! I knew it!  A raccoon! Well, that explains everything! 

I got out of the shower, threw on a housecoat, came downstairs and grabbed my camera. I needed evidence! ...and a blip! I watched in fascination when he reached up, hung onto the feeder with one hand and used his other hand to pick up a seed and put it into his mouth! (extra) So dexterous is a raccoon. Whose idea was it to give raccoons opposable thumbs? 

I cannot believe I am blipping on the right day and before the day has hardly begun, but I thought that nothing more interesting was probably going to happen during the day that would beat that darn raccoon for a blip photo, so why not? 

PS:  There was an interesting travel article in yesterday's newspaper that I thought knottman2 might like, as he recommended that book and has actually been to the bookstore. (extra) Because of that book I put that place on my To-Travel list!
