2020 - Vancouver - Help, I've Been Treed

The courtyard at our condo is often visited by raccoons. Most of their visiting hours are at night so it was somewhat unusual to see this one during the day and 30 feet up in a tulip tree (NEVER plant a tulip tree, they are aphid hell).

 

After hanging on for approximately 3 hours, raccoon eased its way down and left the area.

 

The wild raccoon lives a largely solitary life. Their attraction to urban areas can cause them to much more densely populate and they will build their dens in chimneys, attics, roofs, crawl spaces, under decks and sheds.
