Default Raccoon

Just an FYI:
Last evening around 7:15, as we were leaving Mockingbird Lane, we saw a raccoon run between two houses and go up a tree. It was light out and my understanding from a prior experience is that if a raccoon is out in daylight, he is not well, and a good chance rabid. I spoke to the gate keeper at Sanibel entrance and there was a community watch person. I don't know if they called animal control - presumably they did...but if you are in that area with a dog or out walking on the golf course, you might keep your eyes open.
