Pulled these off my bow stand cam this weekend:

1) have no pic of any raccoons in any previous pictures
2) I do have pics of Deer-Pigs-cows-Red fox-Rabbits & turkeys

Pic shows a fairly large critter - small ears - no mask or ringed tail - has fur & a small short pointed nose. It may be a weird colored raccoon with no markings. or something else.

Pics were taken in west Texas / Cisco Tx / eastland & stephens county our lease splits between 2 countys










*****A few pics of other critters taken off the same camera to give a size perspective:**********

I thought it may be a coon - have never seen one on this feeder before - if it is a coon it's a Fat sucker - and could not see any mask or tail markings

So grey foxs have a red Face?

Grey/black face with a white collar. But the back of their head and ears is red.

Yep, one very fat coon. You've fed him well apparently.

Very, very fat coon. Man back in the day, that one would be worth $40.00 at least!!

That is a cross between a chinchilla and a raccoon. Make a great hat!
