Hal, the Wyze Pan Cam covering the stairs in the garage, has a speaker so you can remotely talk to someone at the other end. Except I don’t know if it actually works that well. The sound may be garbled. While exercising on my stationary bike, I remembered I hadn’t brought in the cat food,… Continue reading Hal’s Microphone

Widey Determined in the Garage
Widey goes up the garage steps and starts eating out of the cat dish. Pippen is sitting in the cat bed, but doesn’t seem to object. A couple minutes later, Widey returns down the stairs. She stops at the side of the car and stands on her hind legs for a moment. Widey walks toward… Continue reading Widey Determined in the Garage
Waiting at the Tire Tunnel
Target and Widey leave the den. Target enters the tire tunnel as daylight fades to black (and white.) Widey joins Target in the tunnel. Target takes a position at the tunnel opening After waiting about five minutes, Target leads way toward the side of the shed, and Widey follows. Eight minutes later, the raccoons return… Continue reading Waiting at the Tire Tunnel
Target and Cotton Grooming
After leaving the den, Cotton stands by the tire tunnel, still with a damaged tail. Target leaves the tires and stands grooming by the shed. Cotton follows and for nearly a minute they groom each other.
Target Steals the Cat Dish, Again, February 17
Target enters the garage. Pippen, sleeping in the cat bed, looks up as the raccoon approaches. Target carefully takes the entire cat dish down the stairs and sets it down beside the car. There must have been some food in the dish (oops) because Target doesn’t leave the garage for another six minutes. From the… Continue reading Target Steals the Cat Dish, Again, February 17
Target Steels the Cat Dish, Again
I was in a hurry to leave the house and neglected to removed the cat dish with a bit of food in it. Five minutes later, Target entered the garage. On the way up the stairs, Target stopped to eat some food out of a plastic dish. For some reason, the camera pans back quickly… Continue reading Target Steels the Cat Dish, Again
Target Waiting in Tires
Widey tried to steal food from Target in the garage, then both raccoons returned to the den. Five minutes later, Widey somehow sneaked out of the den and is back in the garage looking for leftovers. Meanwhile, Target leaves the den. And goes into a row of tires stacked against the fence. Target returns the… Continue reading Target Waiting in Tires
Widey vs Target and Pippen
I often see racoons traveling in pairs, but that doesn’t mean they’re working cooperatively. Sometimes one raccoon follows another in hopes of getting some of the leftovers. Widey carefully comes up the garage steps, where Pippen, a 15-pound stray cat who adopted us, is eating a handful of cat food in a metal dish. Pippen… Continue reading Widey vs Target and Pippen
Licking Ice
It’s been cold, so the water I put in a dish by the fence has mostly frozen. We’ll call the raccoon in this video Target, because of the nicely even rings at the end of its tail, but I’m not positive this is the only raccoon with that design on its tail. Anyway, Target starts… Continue reading Licking Ice
