Two raccoons appeared in my neighbors yard 10/28/2010. One of my dogs first spotted them. They stayed in a tree or on a rafter in a patio cover.
I seen have raccoons in the area on and off for years, this is the first time we had a close encounter with them.

Almost cute, isn’t it?
The bat is hanging upside down against a brick wall. I took this photo looking up at it, and got a good shot of its face.
