Green Tomato Racoons

This afternoon I was working in the kitchen when I heard Sophie barking like crazy in the back yard.  Normally she stops if I holler at her, but not this time.  I went downstairs and looked out the back door...and saw three teenage racoons on top of the back fence.  Two were staring down at Sophie, doubtless thinking about having a little two on one skirmish.  The third was just hanging out behind them.  We have been hearing thumps and bumps in the night in our backyard lately.  Now I think I found the suspects...and they are the usual ones.
