15th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Peek-A-Boo

A mother raccoon decided to use an abandoned pump house on our property to raise her babies in. Every night, she would peek her head out to make sure the coast was clear before allowing them out. They'd come out of the hole in a single file line. It was so cute! I loved looking forward to seeing them every evening.
