Hi all, I wanted to share our fostering of the most entertaining rascals mother nature ever created. Here is some of the "gang", who patter our door steps, days and nights. It is a fallacy that racoons are only nocturnal. Our first babies came during the afternoon, told there friends, and never left. They are so very smart, clever, and amazing to watch. Sleeping under our deck, they will put there hands threw the boards when you are out, for cookies. We raised them on fresh fruits, nuts, vegies, and dry cat food. Not directly related to the cat family, but they are cat like in nature. Each was inoculated, and free to roam,to come and go as they please. Such a joy, wild and playfully unique. Nature is so very special... Enjoy... Much Love, peace and blessings to all. thestormy sunshine

Hi my dear Stiff, So happy to know this post lifted your spirits, and my heart to read you are joyful. That is why I posted it. For the joy of life.. And of Nature of course. I try my best to be one with it all. These guys are the bomb, they bring you out, even when you want to be cocooned in yourself doubt. And, boy these days I am cocooned up often. So to lift the heavy weights we all carry, animals go right to our hearts in such greatly good ways. I do look forward to your family growing with hens!! That will be awesome my friend..No social distancing with nature, she will always bring you a smile.Wish I could send you some paints for the shed. You got me thinking, what could I paint, and with what? I'll get back to you on that one. For now, have a blessed day, as it is later there, and I am always late replying here, sorry to all... Have a sunny next day, and if your down, just picture in your mind, those sweet birds of Spotty"s, and Flutter , and Storm, and Chickens, and Raccoon"s, o' ya, and we have lots of deer here too. Photo"s to come soon!! All my best to you my dear one, and your family! Lovingly, thestormy sunshine:)πππΊπΊπ£π€π₯π¦π¦ππ¦π¦π¦π¦π¦π
Hi stormy sunshine sorry for delay in answering. π bless you stormy, sorry you cocooned often but glad the animals help you too ππ
I just loved seeing and hearing about those lovely raccoons ππ
Well Iβve painted inside the coop for a couple of days, I managed to order my paint and hopefully will start on the outside tomorrow, so slowly but surely getting there. Today their feeder and bedding food and stuff turned up so getting more excited πππ
Iβm looking forward to what youβre going to paint and more pics ππ
How is lovely storm?π
Apologies I have taken time , I have tried felting him just a bit more to do , but been busy bee π. Should finish soon and will send you pic π

Hope you are getting some sunshine now π
Love and best wishes to you and yours π€πππ¦π€πΆπ¦π¦π»π¨πΉπΌπ·ππ€π€π¦ π¦πΊπΊπ΄πππx
Hi my dear Stiff, you have sure been a busy bee!!!I am happy you were able to get your paints!! And those hens will have the coolest "Hen" house ever!My cocoon is always open, it's just my safe mindfulness, to keep me grounded, and in a happy place,LOL...All good. Well, the rain is thundering down today again, so we are hoping for sunshine on Saturday. Temps are up there, I tried to go out and blush wooly warm Storm, and you know, here came the thunder! He ran to the Barn. LOL, he's not a scaredy cat, Meow.. I look anxiously happily for the felt working. That is like a christmas gift,π I ordered grease pencils and are paper, so I hope to get the supplies next week, I really am inspired by you, and so many here, to do my art working again. Thank you for showing me so much that all helped me to revisit what I once loved to do, now, again dear Stiff!! Storm will soon long for your chilly days, I will pack him in a carry pigeon and fly him over for a Holiday!! Be well my friend, keep going, you are almost there, and the "chicks"π£π£π£π£ will soon be singing to you and your family! Much love, blessings and peace to you and yours.Xxxx thestormy sunshine:)πππππ€π€π€©π€©π€ͺπππ
π blimey stormy sunshine, your weather needs to change π funny storm is it the thunder he donβt like or the rain π my jag refuses to go out in the rain π, weβve been caught in snap showers on walks and heβs just run off home , leaving us to get drenched ππ
So pleased you feel inspired by peopleβs art work because it is not just enjoyable but does help relax the mind, hopefully transports you to a nice calm place like it does me for a while ππ So pleased, hope you get supplies soon and enjoy π
Yay storm π and pigeon most welcome here πππ
Love and best wishes π€ππβοΈπΏπx

Yes maggielee, let the dining begin! It really gets full when we get the peanuts in the shell out. They have a ball, and use there hands so precicly, it's a really fun time.. Glad you enjoyed the post. Nature is our family, and I love to share with everyone.. Peace, blessings, joy, thestormy sunshine
What a gorgeous post of such a lovely family! They look so comfortable in sharing their decking with you! Totally get that nature is carrying on regardless during the pandemic - business as usual in all regards, no stress and no social distancing! We can watch and marvel at their freedoms and simple happiness that they derive from gathering their food and caring for their families. Thanks for posting! πΎππΎπβ£οΈ
They are so adorable, and so are you for looking after them. πNature is wonderful and lifts our spirits when we are down, confused or upset. Long walks in a natural environment full of wildlife is the treatment for any emotional upset I think. ππ»ππ»
Thanks so much for posting these fabulous photos Stormy and for telling us all bout the racoons.π You definitely are the sunshine in our lives!! ππ
Has your wether improved yet, by the way? I hope you are getting some sunshine now. ππ» Love and hugs,ππ€ Spotty xx
Hi Spotty, I am so happy you like the photos, as you have nature in your garden too! Those fur balls of fun are my ticket to mindfulness, along with all the rest of the families we get. It is like wonderland sometimes, I pinch myself to know I am not dreaming.. As for the weather, thank you for asking, well, it is raining, at least not snow. We are going to plant, even in frost, to start off. That is good news and a sign of the season . Warmer weather is coming!! Yay!! Hows the garden, and nature by you.. Heres to sipping lemonaid, and icepops with Love, thestormy sunshine:)ππππ€π€π
