We live in a small town outside of Seattle. I have seen multiple racoons walking down the street mid day. Every year they are born in our shrubbery and I know it is fall when I look up and there are three babies and a mama staring at me. It often means they are hungry. Sometimes it means they are sick but I always notify the parents whose kids are at the bus stop that racoons are walking around. One night at 3 am we thought we had burglars and my husband got up (I had the phone just in case) and there were two raccoons that came in through the dog door and were having a 3 am snack of dog food. That was a little dangerous....He chased them out with a broom. I saw a whole new side of my CPA husband! He was so brave!
