I share the river with a lot of wildlife

Today while I was out enjoying the sunshine again, I had a close encounter with a chubby raccoon. I think he was as curious about me as I was about him. I tried to get close but I have to admit that something was a bit intimidating about him. I think it was the mask, or possibly his shiny eyes. After a brief stare down, He wandered away. I focused my attention on some small fish in the river and a hawk that was flying overhead that seemed to be watching the fish too. After chasing a butterfly for a while, I decided to take a nap in the old hammock. I love life on the river and all the wildlife I share it with. Have a wonderful day, MITCH
