Mohican, Stinky & Button are the coonie stars in this, along with Boo boo & Marley-a couple of my domestic kids!

Sorry there hasn't been much new happening lately (actually nothing new!!). Working on getting a new litter box in the pen that should help make clean up much easier! The 6 older boys out back pretty much hunker down all day in their den box (like normal coonies should!) and the little kids uptown are growing like weeds.

Roxy has healed perfectly and is doing great. The weather has been miserable for picture taking, but I'll make an attempt soon and give ya some updated pics!

The holidays are here.

Well I finished at least one coonie Christmas design and you can see it here!

It's been hard getting time to sit and work on them with a full house here for the season keeping me busy!

The new calendar is finally designed too with the kids from this past season. I've also got a raccoon ornament on there as well as some squirrel holiday items, so check it out!

Snack time.

Old and young alike love to come out for treats...despite the FREEZING temps around here lately! Fruits and nuts on the menu as the little kids learn to open whole nuts.

Outlaw trying to figure out how to open that nut, because he knows he smells something good in there somewhere!

Awww, very cute. Almost looks like mom and kit....but it's not, just one of the little kids learning from a recovering adult how to find the nut in the shell!


Outlaw, Button and Charger foraging around for treats and food in the pen.

Button looks like she's telling a pretty animated story! She's developing a dark patch of fur between her eyes....a beauty mark I guess!

Still trying to figure out how to open that nut.....

Charger searching for treats among the logs.

Outlaw wonders....hmmmmm, do I want pear or apple??

Ok, pear it is!

Strange sightings!

Here are some of the unusual sightings at the feeding station!

The scariest of all! The elusive "Freezing my ass off, why am I out here looking for coonies" creature. Ha ha!

Here we have a cat that has started to become a regular visitor lately. I think she's feral, along with a few others I have been seeing.


And one of the other regulars....Mr. Rat. He even comes out when the coonies are there. While they sit up on the tree platform and eat, watching him, he scurries around down below there.

It's finally getting cold enough for the activity at the feeders to slow down. The one's that do come out are chewin' and screwin'. No hanging around out in the cold for them.
