About This Image

young raccoon having a scratch, atop a holly tree covered with clematis vine, in our back garden. His mother was there also, in a different area of the treetop and she didn't seem too thrilled to see the youngster, we watched him climb up there to join her, but he soon moved away to another part of the vine/tree.
Believe it's last years baby and she was probably about to deliver new babies anytime soon, so the mamas try to shoo the older youngsters away to fend on their own - likely new babes are born by now, but haven't seen any yet.

Hi Cindy, thankyou, - am happy that you're thinking of getting a Canon, - you won't be sorry, you'll just LOVE it, -- have never regretted my choice, infact every day am grateful for my cameras and lenses. Have never owned anything (objects) that I got SO MUCH pleasure from! truly. Now I just have to learn how to put them to better use :)

Wonderful, Alandra. Great detail on such a fascinating animal. These guys have no shame and no fear either. They are great to watch. Nicely done.
