“Mammal” Mia!

Well he’s ringing the diner bell.

They’re smart critters!! My neighborhood is near a huge park, and they come out at night in packs to raid the trash bins left on the curb for trash collection!!

I chitter, you chitter…

It’s a trash panda road race.

It’s an ice cream truck for trash pandas.

In the memorable words of General Ackbar “It’s a trap”

I loved this one. They’re like kids chasing a Mr Softee.

That about sums it up.

I put food out for them at night, usually dog food. If I forget they knock over my flower pots. Little extortionists. “Feed us or the flowers get it!”

So the Pied Piper went out and bought a truck, and this time he’s hunting raccoons!

I dunno…that Humor wasn’t very Good for my taste…

Vely cleber…

They always like a little catch-up with their meals.
