Raccoon attack!

We observed six raccoons happily sipping water from the stream early this morning.   Looked like a mother and five babies.   Big babies!

We then observed the baby fish in the lower pond decided that eating breakfast wasn't so important as it generally is to them.  They stayed hidden in the plants and didn't even pretend to be interested in food.  NOT GOOD.

Before today, the baby fish would come running (swimming) as fast as they could for feeding time.  Today.....nothing.   Gotta find a way to discourage the raccoons.
