Boucle was in the bedroom, looking out of the patio windows.  He started to do slow low growls, the kind when he sees something unusual, but certainly not a C.A.T. or a squirrel as he gets very excited when he sees those.

The slow low growl was going on and on…..so I knew he wanted me to see what he was seeing…….
I went over to him, and looked outside……didn’t see anything……
and then I listened……there was this screeching sound……high pitch…..almost like electric wires sizzling….
I opened the patios….and the sound was very loud…….
I looked up in the direction of the sound…..
And there they were…….two raccoons having a spat over the large tree limb……
Going back and forth at each other……hissing, screeching…..swatting…..
A marital spat for sure………over who would get the best sleeping spot in the tree…..

I turned around and went back inside. Boucle easily followed me.  Now that I had looked at what he found unusual, he didn’t find them interesting anymore.

Half an hour later I went outside and looked up in the tree…..

They had resolved their differences…….
Neither one got the precious sleeping spot……
Each found their own spot…far away from the other….and nowhere near the special sleeping limb….
All was peaceful and content as they snoozed in their new spots…….
