New Deck

I realize I never posted a photo of our new deck, completed last fall.

An addendum to the last post.  The seed level in our feeder, which is hanging by ropes from two trees, is hard to see in some light.  It turns out that someone emptied about 1/4 of the seed from it.  It certainly is not birds, because I keep an eye on it during the day and have seen very few birds.  That raccoon must be the culprit.  And her antics needed to get to the feeder must be impressive.  The seed level was down further this morning.  Wish I had a trail cam to catch her in the act.  We will watch it closely this evening.

This raccoon appeared below our bird feeder today.  She couldn't find much, because the birds haven't found the feeder yet so haven't been dropping seeds, except for a lone chickadee that comes occasionally.  Clearly she is a female nursing cubs.  Unfortunately I think she went up into the dying hemlock tree that we have contracted to be removed.  I sure hope her nest isn't up there.
