Raccoon Breakout Cafe

Sunsetat Rock Harbor Beach
by Hamilton Magri, Jr.

Strange and pretty birds.

An osprey (?) dive-fishes like a boss.

A flock of macaws.

Lion cub has the cutest little meow. It'll get deeper.

Puppet art.

This is super-cute now but I bet this mom is going to sorry she encouraged this in a couple of hours.

Mama dog is very excited to show off her puppies.

Dog breaking and entering.

Nice dogs finish last.

Don't worry, she does this all the time.

Dog respects the leash laws.

Poor old dog just wants one hour of peace away from the puppy.

You, human peasant -- and you shall bear me in a litter filled with fragrant flowers. Or I will be displeased.

22 "The Blue and Yellow Macaw reaches breeding age when they are 3 to 4 years old. They are known to pair for life and live in small family groups. Blue and Yellow Macaws nest high above the ground in cavities found in large, dead trees. Only two or three eggs are laid in a nest. It is thought that the female incubates them. However, both male and female aggressively defend the eggs."

39 I started to get on friendly terms with a raccoon at my parents' house growing up. He didn't destroy anything or rummage through the garbage, just sorta mooched around, sometimes came up on the deck to peek into the house and see what's up.

I assume he kept fed rooting through the neighbor's garbage.

Good Racoon.

40 And I think we had a hummingbird migration come through today. At least that's what Garrett said. They were all over the front yard at one point, lots of fights. The ones that winter here are just green, nothing flashing. Some of these today had blue on the back, some had a rusty red color. They were smaller than the locals. Lasted a couple of hours.

47 Our cat used to hide under the bed, and would swat at our ankles when we came into the bedroom.

And just today, she tried to pick a fight with one of our dogs. Dog was just laying there, minding her own business, when the cat runs up and smacks her. Dog raised a ruckus, but ultimately didn't do anything.

50 Used to feed raccoons at one place we lived in. It was about a quarter mile away from the transfer station. Raccoons eat rats. We would put out dog food on the porch for them. The big coons would eat and the little ones would go under the porch. They'd reach up through the cracks and grab the feet of the bigger raccoons. I know they are destructive but it was fun to watch.

61 For those who have been following the saga of Chekov the Ailing Codger Cat: I am sad to report that he has at last crossed the Rainbow Bridge. (What *did* we use as a euphemism before that meme?) The mobile vet, a nice young woman, handled everything exactly as I would have wished for him: a relaxant first, so we could lift him onto my bed and give him lots of attention, and finally the last shot. It took a few minutes for his heart to stop, almost as if he were hanging on enjoying the attention from us. But he went into the Long Sleep quietly and easily. Miss Linda brushed him for a last time, since she could get to parts of his coat he wouldn't allow before, and then the vet bundled him into her car for the trip to the crematory.

God, this place will seem empty tonight.

96 The hummingbirds that winter here live in the evergreen trees around the place. I think they are Anna's hummingbirds. They eat sap and bugs. They aren't really interested in the feeder until we get to cold weather. Then they will demand it. This was like having a swarm of bees. There would be one at the feeder about every five minutes and you'd see two of them fighting across the yard. It's all quiet again.

109 I used to know some foolish persons who thought it was fun to grab an armadillo by the tail and throw it in the back of a pick up truck. From seeing that happen once, I found out that the second thing armadillos do when scared (jumping is the first thing) is that they shit all over everything. Nasty, runny, foulest smelling shit you never dreamed of.

armadillos are nasty little critters.

129 Thanks, all. Originally we planned to bring him to the vet shop at the first of March. But then he rallied and began to eat 3 meals a day and walk a little better, and we postponed it. Now I think it was a good thing -- he wasn't ready then. Today I suspect he was. The vet lady said he was very tight and tense when she gave him the first shot, but then he really relaxed -- possibly for the first time in weeks.

He went off looking at us and being talked to. The vet lady and I laughed at some of my stories about him, and I don't think that is disrespectful at all. We were celebrating his life, not simply mourning him.

I won't whitewash him. He could be difficult; he was a nipper and a well-dressed furry thug. But we were friends.

I know the feeling and understand.

My Rusty dog eventually got to the point that he could not eat or stand. It obviously hurt when I stood him up. I knew then that keeping him home was selfish on my part.

I carried him to the vet. He was given a sedative and then the last shot. I held his head with both hands and kept telling him he was a good boy until he stopped breathing, and then some. We had him for 17 years. I made it home and into the back yard before I broke down. I'm blubbering now. If I can manage I'll include him in the pet thread Saturday.

Twelve years' worth of stories! I guess the big thing, aside from the two lamps he killed (okay, those were accidents), was that he and I were not close for his first year with me. In fact the first month was rocky; he glared at me like a feral, and I actually thought of returning him to his breeder. Miss Linda talked me out of it. (I probably would have turned around after a few miles and brought him back home.)

It wasn't until Wolf came and they made friends -- in an hour they were sitting in the window together, watching birds -- that Chekov and I began really to like each other.

241 Western Australia publishes map of Gun Owners locations
https://t.co/imujWazMNl

Mr Papalia did not apologise for the maps; instead, a spokesman said anyone attempting to pick the location of a firearm owner from the maps would just be guessing.
"The maps were prepared by police to be supplied to the media. We're advised that in order to maintain, as far as reasonably practical, the anonymity of the location, street names and many other features were removed," he said.

"THE MARKINGS ON THE MAP SPAN SEVERAL POTENTIAL HOUSE LOCATIONS. Notwithstanding the above measures some people may seek to guess the location but it remains just that, a guess."

"The reality is that this modified and de-identified street map is typical in terms of gun ownership and gun density in every single suburb in Perth."

Police Commissioner Chris Dawson told 6PR's Gareth Parker the maps did not 'particularise' addresses.

"While they are illustrative and they don't particularise the addresses, [the maps were] part of a briefing package, which is demonstrative of the volume of weapons that are presently available in the community," he said

We have very weak hands, and are up against long odds the majority of the civil service serves the forces of Moloch, GloboHomo is risking nuclear war on a lark, and we have a government and political class that will happily wreck the global food economy to cow their foes....

On the positive side we have each other, our spirit, and God.

I like our odds.

Not saying we don't have our own issues here but i didn't take to mean the US was destined for food rationing.

He also made a boneheaded remark about the in kind response to chemical weapon usage as the ABC war pig pushed him after he said the US wasn't getting involved in the fighting.

NATO will not be launching chemical weapons in response to Russia using them. And I don't think Russia is going to use them either.

F*ckbook, Twatter, et al tipped their hand on censoring the laptop.

Putin is putting together an information and network map that much is obvious it is what he does and what he knows. I think personally he wants Kompromat and leverage to be left the hell alone and dislodge the petro buck.

The other possibility is he wants to map out with precision the democrat foreign policy for direct cash laundering operation and turn the American public against the entire US federal system for multiple generations.

I presume the Ukes have western issue chemical weapon equipment, so I really don't see how the Russians would benefit. Remember as well, back home they are arguing that they are liberating the Ukes from NAZIs.

If Biden is saying this though it makes me believe that he wants someone else to use them, either us or groups we are working with in Ukraine, and blame the Russians for it as a reason to go to war.

No doubt we continue to have supply issues here and I do expect food prices to continue to rise because of inflation and more expensive fertilizer costs. As the food prices rise, people will either cut back or choose cheaper food sources. The staples, rice, beans and whatnot will likely be the hardest to get until things can stabilize.

The government needs to be very careful here as food shortages are one of the main pillars of civil uprising.

The Azov Battalion has been waging terror war in the Donbas since the 2015 referendum when the overwhelming vote was for independence. Not surprising, they are heavily ethnic Russian and didn't like the western government we installed after the Maidan coup.
