I especially love the little critters who just left home and are figuring things out.
A teenage raccoon started raiding my bird feeders and I’m not even mad.
But I am moving my bird feeders.

Bun Alert System
1097 readers
172 users here now
A place to alert others/be alerted of bun sightings.
The smoler the bun the better, please see this for an explanation: https://xkcd.com/1682/
RULES:
-
Be kind to each other. Buns are cute, cuddly, and nice. Be like buns.
-
Posts should be images of buns doing bun things. Bun things include eating, chilling, playing, hopping, and sleeping. You wouldn't want to be alerted of a capybara doing calculus through the Bun Alert System, would you? For other bun discussion, see some other communities below.
-
Images should be of living, healthy, happy buns. The Bun Alert System exists to bring smiles to bun enjoyers around the world, not sour frowns.
-
Keep it suitable for all bun enjoyers. Nothing too freaky or NSFW.
-
With respect to this community, moderators are the smolest buns. Please shoot us a message if you have questions or concerns!

@Semi_Hemi_Demigod @KrissyKat I watched a fresh faced squirrel baby getting mad at the circle of sparrows gathered around him, who would fly up to the feeder, grab some seeds, then fly back down to the grass right in front of the baby squirrel to finish eating them. They were obviously teasing the poor thing.
Sparrows can be jerks. But not like starlings.
I had to buy a metal cone to keep them from climbing mine (and move all chairs far enough away that squirrels couldn't jump).
Squirrels never seem to bother them. But this raccoon ate half a suet cake affer pulling the feeder down.
I took the feeder inside but left a piece of turkey for him because I know he’s a little guy just tryin.
