5:40 AM – The chopped nuts D puts out on the deck rail attract a lot of birds, but also, the Raccoon. He (or she) is presumably the same one that kept getting in the old (and unstable) bath and falling off the porch. The new birdbath setup is more firmly attached, so we have videos of the Raccoon enjoying the nuts, and splashing around in the water (and looking in our kitchen window). Unfortunately, one of the cameras fogged up, so the video is not great. The other is okay – that’s the one recorded at 3:45 AM. At 3:49 AM D went out on the deck with the dog. I’d just as soon not have any face-to-face encounters, so we’re suspending the chopped nuts for birds program.
