Little Visitors

I've been waiting for my raccoons to visit with babies and was not disappointed last night! At first, I thought there were just two. They ran away when I opened the door to give them peanuts, but then came back. And I counted three!
But in the end, there were FOUR adorable, roly-poly babies! Here is a picture of Mama with two of her offspring:

They were so much fun to watch, almost like puppies. They were full of mischief, getting into everything. After a while, they weren't afraid of me and even came up to the door. I think animals know when someone is not going to hurt them.
Melody, my cat, wasn't too happy, and sat there growling at them through the door glass.
