I really wish I could have taken a better pic of this fellow, but you just have to go with me on this one. Two blocks away for work, I see a fat fuzzy something coming down a tree trunk. Too big to be a squirrel, too fat to be a cat. I stop, it stops. It looks at me. It's a raccoon. He's freaking adorable, and as he realizes I saw him, he starts back up the tree. I try to take a picture of him as he's waddling up the trunk, but he's really camera shy, and keeps spiraling around the tree to get away from me. So all I get is his eyes. I have to say, he's not a very agile animal, and his progress up a tree can only be compared with an overweight Firefox, but still, hella cute. Welcome to the Fenway, where we've got raccoons in our trees.
