Wash bears

It was late in the afternoon. I took a walk, just to get some exercise and to see if any new ducks had arrived. At a slightly different corner I ran into these 2 cuties, gorging on Muku berries.

Hmm, that one looks yummy

Can I get it?

Yeah!

Raccoon babies, アライグマ

All babies are cute, but these 2 were SUPER! Late afternoon, we were on the way home when we saw them on the side of the road in the mountains south of the city. No parents were in sight, they must have been watching from a distance.

How old would they be? 3 months? One was a little smaller than the other.

They saw me from across the road, but didn't seem too concerned. Hadn't they learned about harmful humans yet?
