Lost raccoon?

When Gord left for work this morning, he saw a raccoon on our terrace.

This evening when he was BBQing, he saw it curled up inside the BBQ cover (he hadn't covered the BBQ when he used it yesterday).

There was a lot of movement and noise on our terrace today (the contractors were back) so it's surprising the little guy spent the day there ... it was probably too scared to leave.

Gord went to check it out just now. It has left the comfort of the BBQ cover and is now in a tree across the street.

Toronto has a lot of raccoons and we live on a fairly busy street.

    Aww..that's cute. I'm surprised that he hung out all day, though. Did you get a pic of him in the BBQ cover?

    I was heading out to get a pic of him in the BBQ cover after supper and then Gord said he'd moved to the tree across the street. It would have been a cool pic.
