Yes, we've captured and released 16 Raccoons, and perhaps 5 Opossums.
As the new houses go up, the wildlife that can escape heads our way first since we've a nice wooded lot.
Pity the wildlife that cannot escape like turtles, lizards, snakes, and fledglings still in the nest.
But we do what we can.
An old MOC, at least three years old. I would build some parts of it differently now, but I like the overall shape.

Taking a much needed break (for all of us I'm sure) from snow landscapes, I found an amenable subject also taking a much needed break from being stuck in the house. She has developed a serious case of cabin fever, not likely to be remedied as high temps for next week are again predicted to be no higher than zero. Another now famous polar vortex descending. Truly a ridiculous winter...as confirmed by the glare on Star's face.
In any event, as I fiddled with this photo, this result struck me as being exactly as I remember the Paint by Number kits of my youth and I wondered whether, lacking screens or buttons of any type, they were still being produced. I'm sure many of you recall these from your own childhood. This led to a perfunctory check on Google yielding the following interesting (to me) information: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paint_by_number Of course, this could get me started on another Sunday rant on the benefits for children in spending a few hours painting as opposed to a few hours playing Worlds of Warcraft...but I will defer for the moment.
The original for those interested is in comments.

Topic 5 for the 52 in 2016 challenge - Abstract. This is the detail on the outside of Number One Walbrook in the City of London.
Fleet number 1066 was seen on Earl Grey Street working route 11 from Hyvots Bank to Ocean Terminal. The vehicle is seen passing Central Hall, built by the Edinburgh Methodist Mission in 1901.
Blatently influenced by my paint-brush rocket-ship of last year - HERE..... which of course was blatently influenced by Bald Monks work.

The number of odd workings by NCT’s route branded vehicles seems to have skyrocketed in the past year or-so, to the point you could barely call it a rare event because there’s normally at least one a day. Some of the most interesting examples of this are where Trent Bridge depot have been so short of buses that they’ve had to borrow a decker from Parliament Street garage and run it on a single deck route.
That’s exactly what I saw here on 17.10.24 when purple line biogas bus 471 was employed on the Bridgford Bus network in place of a pint sized green Enviro 200 MMC, pictured outside Nottingham station as it leaves the city along Carrington Street. I was lucky here as I’d travelled into town specifically to catch a train and the rare bus happened to turn up in the window between me arriving and having to head to the platform. I knew it was out and crossed my fingers I’d be in the right place at the right time to spot it!
Actually, with the amount of off-route workings going on, I’ve managed to rack up a few of these ‘right place right time’ spots when I’ve been out. Other than those instances, I haven’t bothered to chase around after all the unusual NCT workings. Everyone seems to do it these days so the appeal is lost; anything “rare” you find you already know about 6 other veg will have seen it. At least I’m so behind with uploads that I’m not uploading them on the same evening as everyone else!

First made a number of cuts to their Sheffield network in September. Most notable was the withdrawal of services 3/3A between Nether Edge and Meadowhall, replaced on the Nether Edge side of the city centre by a diverted 56 at a slightly reduced frequency, and on the Meadowhall side by an extended 95 and new 95A variant at the same ten minute frequency. The 56 previously operated every ten minutes between Wybourn and Herdings, and was replaced on the Herdings side of the city centre by the 11A which was introduced alongside sister service 11, with both also partially replacing the 1A.
The new every-15-minute 56 requires five vehicles and mainly seems to be operated by representatives from the eight-strong cohort of short Streetlites which were transferred from Manchester to Sheffield towards the end of the summer. One of this number, SN14EAG (47473), was captured negotiating the leafy Montgomery Road in Nether Edge with today's 11:56 from Wybourn.

The Royal Crescent is perhaps the most famous place in Bath, built in 1767-1774 by John Wood the Younger. The exterior today remains very much what it always was. In the beginning this was a very fancy address, but as the social status of Bath diminished so did the status of the inhabitants here (though that is not to say it still wasn't fancy). Eventually some of the houses were split into flats to more suit modern tastes and needs. There is also offices and a 5 star hotel - and number 1 is a museum.
The first inhabitant of this address was a Henry Sandford, an MP, who lived here to his death in 1796. The house is now turned into a museum to show how it might have looked like when Sandford lived there - it had been bought in 1967 Bernard Cayzer and he donated it to the Bath Preservation Trust (including money for preservation and to furnish the place in a suitable manner).
The row of houses is today considered one of the best examples of Georgian architecture preserved in Britain.

Gin by Tanqueray No 10. Not a reference to our current dire political system, but that is enough to turn anyone to drink.
47.3% ABV @ ISO 1000. :-)
From Expert Reviews:
"This very-small-batch London dry gin is citrussy, fresh and full-bodied; arguably, it’s the best martini gin around. Made from pink grapefruit, orange and lime, as well as chamomile flavours and other botanicals including coriander, angelica and liquorish, it’s named after Charles Tanqueray, who made the world’s first gin back in 1830, later creating this one which is distilled four times. It’s the only gin in the world-renowned San Francisco Spirits Hall of Fame, which tells you all you need to know about its standing in the world of spirits. A magnificent gin."

This week's been about Soccer and Marching Band. Number 6 came about the other night while I was processing some soccer game shots for a friend. Number 6 is the daughter of a friend and a fantastic soccer player. I processed a few shots but wanted something a little special, maybe a little different. This shot caught my eye and off I went!!!! I printed on Hahnemuhle, Baryta and gave her the print, we were happy. 10-23 216
