A Very Curious Raccoon

[lulu5kamz]

We get raccoon recordings every night, but I never saw a raccoon that seemed so interested in finding a way into the house. This raccoon spent 15 minutes walking around our house this morning. It kept coming back to this one spot. I also wonder if they can see infrared light, because at one point it stands up on 2 legs to look directly at an external IR light installed above the garage. Attached is a snapshot of that. The video was recorded by a Hikvision DS-2CD2232-I5 at 2048 x 1536 resolution.

Nice video. I wonder what was piquing its interest?

I bet he can smell dog/cat food...I used to use a wrist rocket and pennies (10 years old), and go 'hunting' in our breezeway as the masked bandits wandered inside for the kitty kibble.
