> [@romansperson](#): > > The birds have been eating their heads off here with all the cold weather - I think we broke a record for the longest stretch of time under 32F. I put some roosting pockets under the sill of our covered front porch since the wrens like to roost there and I thought they could use some extra protection.

Couple of days worth. Orange cat & raccoons. Need to do some thinking about how to get critters where I need them to be. Maybe pictures in the next batch of what I saw late in the afternoon when grump kept running off from the food a younger doe who has a left front knee out of joint or maybe broken. Little one got smart and waited until the others left and then she came in and ate several times. Nature is pretty harsh and it is hard to watch sometimes. Like the one with the bad rear foot, she just did not make it through hunting season. Quick with a bullet or slow, I don’t know. Hope things turn good for this new young deer. May see her in more pictures. They all are getting more comfortable with us being on the deck, we can talk and as long as we don’t stare, about half will not run off. Enjoy. [The batch with raccoons at the end.](https://photos.google.com/share/AF1QipNqFgng2M6s6yWnakJv4H-8_D4tVzdr_1kqtK4xR_J3-y7NnhvYu3KqE1tc7nPI4w/photo/AF1QipOgbEbo3pmc_KPgxDZ5Bmkq4fPYbwuRttCbxVIm?key=bDMxS2haUnRzcTFHNEVlYVc4M3BvQUR0NXBqTkxR) ---

Raccoon eating the Orange Cat’s food. The trap is wired open. They are used to going in there. Can trap the cat or coons anytime. Mostly being used for a dog proof place for his food and it is far enough that only one of our cats bothers to walk that far for the same food that is in their condo. With out harming or moving the whole passel of raccoons I need to keep the coons out and still let the cat in. Stumped right now. ☹ ---

> [@GusNSpot](#): > > With out harming or moving the whole passel of raccoons I need to keep the coons out and still let the cat in. Stumped right now. ☹ Coons are smart, or possessed of low animal cunning. My first Wife’s family lived near my five acres in West Pulaski county, near Saline. They had a coon coming in a dog door and eating dog and cat food. The Grandmother discovered him in the bathroom in the early hours of the morning. ---
