We knew there was probably more then one raccoon getting into the squirrel feeder every night. Now we know there are four!
Apologies for the lack of quality. Was my first time trying my new toy at night. I figured the bush was cropping in to the frame, but I was having some difficulty getting the focus locked in since it was dark out. I am definitely planning on trying some more night work again, so hopefully I learn from my (many) mistakes 😉

A Common Grackle wondering why the House Finch won’t eat the little white seeds faster so he can have the sunflower seeds.
This is from a couple weeks ago. Switched over to just Safflower seeds in this feeder and now the Grackles leave it alone.
