Description
A raccoon we named Becky lived under our deck for years; she was injured, possibly in a trap, and it was not easy for her to climb trees . Year after year she had babies in the Spring and raised them in our yard.
she was the best mother; pictured here is one of her babies on the deck
looking into the house. The different colored fur you see beyond the baby
is Becky laying on the deck resting.

Susan Wiedmann
Touching little face and photo. Love the story - are any of her now-grown babies still on your property? F/V.
Patricia Januszkiewicz replied:
Thank you, Susan, for your visit and comments! Becky lived many many years and raised dozens of young in the yard but after she was gone, the babies came back at times but don't see many raccoon any more. But when we do I am just positively sure they are related to her ... patricia

I know what you mean... I like that you named Becky! FV... Hope you are having a great summer Patricia! VF

Congrats on your contest win. Can't believe we came in on the top two!
Patricia Januszkiewicz replied:
Yes, Diane, it seems unusual that two raccoons would be the top two "unusual pets" ... glad to share that contest win with you ... patricia
Diane Merkle
Thanks for the comment. Hadn't been into view other work in the contest but you are right.....our kids look really good together. They could almost be twins! Good luck!
Patricia Januszkiewicz replied:
yes, Diane, your Masked Critter and Becky's Baby look like they could be twins .. amazing we posted them with timing to place them next to each other ... In the contest, I'm going to have to vote for both of them ... patricia
