Cute or creepy?






I was driving into my neighborhood coming home from taking pictures one afternoon and I saw three little raccoons on the sidewalk. They were rummaging around in some bushes at the front of an apartment complex right before my street. I pulled over and took some pictures from my car. They looked awful scrawny and little. I wonder if these were three siblings who had lost their parents. I'm sure they are old enough by now to fend for themselves. They stayed pretty close together. I showed these to a friend who shrugged and said "They're just really big rats." I said "But look how cute they are?"

  6. Oh, the little sweeties. And you think they're orphans? Better to be in Florida than elsewhere, then.
    Good shots, Dina.

  8. Super cute! I love raccoons, although it's easy to say that when they haven't gone after my garbage.

  9. They're all cute when they're young. Its when they get older and wiser and start going through your trash is when they get pesky and ugly.
