Land Otter

This young raccoon was out and about in broad daylight all by itself. It was playing with a bit of leaf while lying on its back. It was cute. Hopefully it isn't playing in a drama known as "The Story of the Meerkat Family." Long story; tell later, but suffice to say only one meerkat survived, barely, to the last reel. UPDATE: The same raccoon was nosing around the neighbor's house this morning. I hope he doesn't become a pest.
