Holy cow Lynne, you have a whole community of them living in your yard! 
I'm glad you keep catching them!  They are pretty out in nature, but not when they are your backyard eating everything.

Hiya Mike!
That is why I said that broccoli is my new best friend 4 posts up from here!
It really has worked so much better than any of the other foods we've tried over the years. Too bad it's so expensive, but on the other hand... so were all the plants they ate and destroye!!!

'Fraid not, Thorny - most of them are having the time of their lives up in the mountains now, except for the last 2 who have been avoiding the trap.

Val - we have had 'possums on our deck eating the catfood that we put out for the feral cat that we feed, a few times over the past few winters. They do come at night, and don't seem to be sick, but they are the ugliest things around!!!
Here is a poor baby racoon that had the misfortune of getting caught in the trap last week. He was crying out for a few hours, before I could get Don on the phone at work to tell me how to open the trap and release him. He scampered off over the rock wall, hopefully to the mountains and not someone else's yard.
And here is UNLUCKY #5 today!!!
He really is unlucky, because he might have been in the trap since yesterday, but since we didn't get home until 11:30 at night and we were exhausted, we didn't check the trap. I noticed him first thing this morning, but he has to wait for Don to get home from work to take him up to the mountains.
