Hi all...  It's been awfully quiet on here lately so I thought I'd check in to see how everyone (and everycoon) is doing! Things here have been fine......
Hi Kell, good to hear from you. It's quiet on most of the lists right now, have noticed. All okay here too. Have also noticed the kits being aggressive...
Hi Alandra! Glad everything is good in your corner of the world! :)  I think maybe the kits are trying to secure their place in the coonie hierarchy...
thanks Kell, it also sounds right to me too. Well, have noticed lately that the single kit of the blind mama, often seems to be alone at nights now, and he's...
My 'coons have reverted mostly to being nocturnal. Could be the long hours of darkness. Could be because we have sworn off leaving food out day & night. But...
Because of my illness, I have reverted to throwing out 5 degradable bags every night. They all hide until we go in the house, usually. If I go back out later...
The coonies here have now also become more nocturnal. From what I've learned from some rehabbers, raccoons aren't really born nocturnal, it's more of a...
Hi Karen! What are the bags you're using and where would I find some? That's a really cool idea! My usual visitors have moved from their usual trees and...
The first bags I used were biosafe and then they stopped, but I searched the web and found BioBag-that is their name. Do a google search and you will find...
The same seems to be happening here too, Kell and Karen. When the babies are very small, the mamas seem to bring them around in the early afternoons, - seems...
Hi all, wondering if others onlist have noticed the lack of coonie visitors lately? We are having an unusual cold spell of weather here, as I guess many...
Hi Alandra, I haven't seen any of our 'coons since the weather turned unusually cold & snowy for this region. I took a thermometer with me to our monthly ...
Hi Edmund, thanks for the response and feedback. It's been exactly the same here, with me putting food out and the crows getting it first thing each morning....
hi alandra and ed just a few words-it's been C-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-ld here in indy.5% today with high wind and lite snow. my little friends haven't been here for...
Just to be clear, we feed our crows regularly too. They are not as cute & photogenic as furry critters, but they fly air cover for our squirrels. Otherwise...
Hi again, Ed/all, I know what you meant, as we also "feed everything" too :) In this type of weather, it's almost impossible to feed one lot without others...
Hi Carolyne, thanks for the feedback too, about the coonie situation in your area. It makes me feel better to know that most of the listers here are noticing...
Hi again Ed, - meant to ask you if you have the Anna's hummers at your garden now, as you wrote about the hummingbird feeder. A pal on another list, - she...
We had one 'coon show up this morning around 0545. It is still a bit dark for the feathery critters to start for the day. But we have had Anna's Hummers...
hi all, I moved in this house in the city,up the road thier is construction site..There used to be like alittle wooded area,but they have got it cleared...
Hi Crystal, Who is telling you that you shouldn't put food out for raccoons? Are there no workhouses? Bah. Humbug. Pay no attention. Feed them and they...
thanks Ed, nice to hear about the hummer hovering so near your shoulder. I hope they survive. The other person I mentioned is at Port Townsend, WA, btw. (who...
Hi Crystal, somehow missed your post, until I noticed it below Ed's post just now. That's real cute hearing about that moma coonie who took your childrens' toy...
hi again! the other day as i was heading out to shop,there was a red tiled hawk in my yard! it happenes occasionally tthey are searching for food and i'm in an...
Dear Raccoonwatchers: We have almost nothing feeding around here except for the birds (sparrows mostly, I think). I haven't seen a feral cat for two days, and...
jeanne, Â i think we all are (staying warm in our nests!) the weather here in indy has been like yours.have a wonderful and safe holiday! carolyne ... From:...
Kell, What you described three weeks ago is exactly what we have seen here. Zero 'coons came in during the 18 to 20 F weather. Minor racctivity resumed as the...
