Guess Who's Coming to Dinner!

We were having dinner with friends Friday night and part of the entertainment was furry and four-legged. Renee has been feeding the raccoons at her back door for several years now and this little female is extraordinarily tame.

She was waiting patiently on the back steps when the door was opened and poked her head in to make sure Renee was getting the food.

And she'd brought her babies with her -- who were shy and mostly stayed under the car.

Here's a slideshow with the entire sequence of raccoon pictures. In them you'll see another adult raccoon that Mama chases off, growling and hissing.

And here's a shot Renee took of the whole family after we left, getting the car out of the way.
