A Painting Blooms: Raccoons Raiding Bird Feeder 1.0
In this A Painting Blooms Raccoons Raiding Bird Feeder 1.0 video, you will discover that raccoons are opportunistic foragers; if your bird feeder is left accessible at night, your yard becomes a midnight buffet. Consequently, Bloomin Fool captures these masked bandits in the criminal act of a garden heist.
Raccoons Raiding Bird Feeder 1.0: The Painting Process. This video shows the Raccoons Raiding Bird Feeder 1.0 painting in stages from start to finish. By watching the process, you can see how the initial sketch evolves into a completed work through layers of acrylic glazes. This method allows Bloomin Fool to capture the specific textures of the fur and the hardware of the feeder.
The Bird Feeder Conflict. Bird feeders often attract the Procyon lotor, or common raccoon. These animals use their dexterous paws to dismantle feeders or spill seed to the ground. In addition, this behavior is most common during the overnight hours when the birds are not active.
