Bill, No, no. You are mixing up a Procyon Lotor with it's close cousin Procyon Garbagotor. It's OK, a common mistake. Best, LM.

Spotted on my last trip to Cabela's sporting goods store in Dundee,

MI. One of dozens (hundreds?) of stuffed animals in lifelike poses &

surroundings. Most are quite accessible, almost within arms reach &

lighting for many is from a skylight with fill from store

incandescents (sometimes difficult to balance in colour). Comments

gratefully received. Best, LM.

Way to go LM! A very expressive photograph.

Yah, too cute to pass by without photographing it. Thanks for taking the time. Best, LM.

Fantastic!!

One would almost think it was still a living being.  Thanks for your thoughts.  Best, LM.
