Racoons in the drink

[buzzsaw]

A few images of racoons feeding on small snails under a log as well as a few reflections.

Very nice pictures.I really like #3 the most.

[finnbay]

Well done. I like both one and three.

[Steve Foss]

Nos. 3 and 4 make my winner's list, Mike.

No. 3 because of the excellent environment and parallel riveted attention of both coons off-camera to the left, No. 4 because of the tail-up pose. As a side note, Nos. 3 and 4 also look sharper to me than the fist two. Nice work.

Great shots!!! Is someone peeing on the coon in the last picture?

[Deitz Dittrich]

awesome dude!

[buzzsaw]

Thanks for looking! Umicheese, that would be water from the tail as he moved forward quickly.

When I first looked at the last picture I sorta thought the same thing, some one was peeing. I figured though that was probably not the case. SHots look great though.

Cool shots Buzzy...Only time I have seen coons that close in the daylight they had a steel bracelet on.. I have noticed since your photo bug caught I haven't seen many fish pics...You may want to change that...

[buzzsaw]

Ha ha Pat! I was talking to Mr. Riola the other day about jigging for some 'skis... not sure if that will happen or not. I could use more time on the water, it's gone WAY down.

Sometimes there is a line that gets crossed. My feelings is that you are pretty close to that line. Would you please change your post.

[buzzsaw]

Paul, you misunderstood him 100%... he's talking about a Racoon being caught in a trap. Oh the joy of the internet.

[Steve Foss]

Yeah, I took that as a trapping reference, too. Easy to misunderstand. Happens a lot.

[jerkin'm]

Wow...I had to think long and hard about how a line could have gotten crossed...You need to get out of Fargo my friend...

[finnbay]

I caught it as a trapping reference as well.

[Steve Foss]

And let's be sure not to keep this thread off-topic and detract from Buzz's excellent raccoon shots.

[buzzsaw]

Steve, flattery will get you everywhere! Thanks for the kind words and lets all go trapping now okay.

[Dan Thiem]

Remember now I'm just a point and shoot kinda guy so my pics aint gonna hold no candle to you fellas. But here's my picture I took of a racoon in the drink.

Going after a gill.

[Scott M]

Good pictures guys. I watched a racoon cross a stream while I as on the deer stand this fall but the lighting was too poor to get any photos.

[caseymcq]

I liked the 4th one the best. I got a chuckle out of it because it looks like that one is trying to keep its butt from getting wet.

All of the photos are pretty cool though.

[buzzsaw]

Cool shot, Dan! You can always tell when somebody uses flash on an animal.

[Griggs]

Great shots buzz! Its really something to find those nocturnal guys during the day!

[buzzsaw]

One more I found and just PP'd.

I like it a lot Mike, great shot!
