Always Something

@"Oak Fig"#32 . Its just so good to have you posting here. Your posts are always the very best. Every time I go work on my garden your influence, and your shared experience is evident everywhere I look. Nobody at the old house (OF), or this one. Have had as much of an effect on how my garden actually looks then you have. I do thank you for it.
 
Finally... one of the big ones!

I know there are more out there but I think this is the biggest of the lot. It really speaks to the power of my brothers porchetta :)

Really though.... while it was clear it really wanted to avoid going in, it seems in the end it was determined to get the food. It was like it needed to run out of other options. It appears, persistence pays... 

There are more around and still no frost in the forecast so I need to stay vigilant for a while longer to protect the crops...

@"TorontoJoe"#1 .Congradulations are clearly in order. Like Beowulf of old you have conquered your Grendel monster, and have him safely caged. This one is super smart so you better drive him even farther than usual. He seems to be a returnee from having been trapped before. Nevertheless Victory is now yours, and you should bask in it. For it is not every day that you can trap the smartest, and clearly the biggest Raccoon in Toronto.
 
Nice catch Joe...looks like the modifications paid off.
And your persistence. 😂 

Sheesh I can't get over how big they are up there compared to down here.
Though looking at the deer in Indiana vs the deer in Florida...night and day as far as size goes. 

What a cautious critter!
 
Finally! Another one down, infinitely more to go?  :D

I hope catching this one helps you save some figs for your family.

Tell me, how many figs did you lose over the past few days and how much damage did you sustain? Like yesterday, they did not touch the bait, but did they feast on your figs?
