I just LOVE how well behaved they are!!! They go over and gently take the hotdogs and then proceed over into their respective corners to munch down on them!!! CUUUUUUTE!!!!❤💋❤💋❤
I like the new beat up guy. He seems to want to trust you already. It's always good to see an animal that's had a rough time find a place that appreciates them for what they are.
All seven of my babies came tonight. They are fearless and come right up to the door for peanut butter sandwiches. I don’t know why, but they won’t eat the hotdogs. They definitely enjoy the grapes. I love how gentle they all are. Does Connor ever try to come out and greet the raccoons? My Bengal cat is very interested in them and will touch noses through the screen door. You are a better person than me, I don’t feed them all hours of the night!!
Jim, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE take care of yourself. Yes, of course the raccoons are important. But, YOU come first. We all love u, and want nothing to happen to u. Don't worry about Buddy....he needs to learn to come when u start your big feed for the others. Don't make me worry here in Minnesota! 💚💙
Asian Sunflower82 Its hard not to wait for Buddy to come. Jim not only feeds them but he loves them. They’re like his children and he wants to make sure they’re all fed. Amazing man. 💜❤️🥰🦝🐈🇨🇦
The raccoon mother is like, "I just love my babies, I'd give my life for them! Everyone tells me what a devoted mother I am.... Hold on a minute Rascal, Jim just tossed some hot dogs to my babies - gotta go steal them from the little ones. Wouldn't want them choking on it...." LoL 😄‼️
Aweee, Buddy said ill help myself to the hotdogs and the babies are so cute💕🥰 you names the sweet girl Patience I think that’s the perfect name for her.. and why is the momma stealing the food from the babies? Maybe she is pregnant🧐 anywho, love your videos James you are awesome all the way from Baltimore♥️
@@CS-ki5uf I think they are the 7th smartest mammal on the planet if I remember correctly. Smarter then any type of dog. So it makes sense that they learn quick. They can do damage too, people lose hunting dogs all the time from raccoons scratching their stomachs and making them bleed out. Vicious little buggers they can be.
Steve from Toronto - My new nightly routine, before tomorrow and back to a stress filled day.. Me watching my cat watching the nightly feedings.. Thanks James you are the best !! Have you thought about purchasing the Hot Dogs wholesale ?
It’s amazing how one MAN and his RACCOONS can bring so many people together to watch. No hatred, no fighting , no cursing. Nothing but kindness and a show of love for them. All that’s going on in the world right now, when I’m watching this I forget about everything except watching the babies, if PATIENCE, WOODY RASCAL SAMMY BLACKY AND OUR BUDDY WILL BE HERE TONIGHT. Thank you MR JIM for your kindness and for inviting us into your world for a bit. We love you for that. All the way from North Carolina. You are awesome
Mama is teaching them every raccoon for themselves. If they don’t pick that up now and assert themselves and something happens to her they won’t get treats. Better they learn while they are babies.
The babies are feeling more comfortable around you. No more staying on the stairs. They’re up in the action. Next they’ll be coming up to you begging like the big ones.
So good to see Buddy back tonight, even though he didn't act like himself , maybe he saving kisses for his girlfriend. The babies are just to cute , and Grabby is doing so much better taking his food .Thanks James for the share now get some sleep.
Im feeding 4 babies myself. Their mama is a good mama. She lets them eat for sbout 10 minutes before she joins them. I also feed my possums too. I love them all.
I get the overripe bananas that go on sale at the grocery for my raccoons. They're not as tame, but they grabbed them and run into the woods. They eat the banana peel also. You can get a stalk of overripe bananas for about $0.75.
That's what I do and feed to feed the raccoons and opossums and some stray cats in my backyard with kibbles. They are wild. I watch them behind my storm door. It's my stress release since I work night shifts and I'm a frontliner as well.
With so many focused on the world's chaos right now, it's a soothing blessing to the soul to watch your vids to start the day on a happy, positive, kind and loving note. Thank you so much for being a friend to these amazing animals and sharing the heartwarming joy of it all!❤
Raccoons has gotta be way better than Prozac. Certainly better for your body. Thanks for the treatment, Dr. James. And speaking of health, you take care of yours, James.
I heard a sound similar to what I hear in your videos wake me up from a nap. Mommy raccoon and baby eating from my car's dry food bowl. Baby went up a free and mom slowly followed. From now on no outdoor cat food.
James you need to get solid sleep. You're letting the fur kids interrupt your sleep with the doorbell thingy. Maybe you establish a regular time to be out there and they will learn?
Most of us older retired people can have night time hobbies we can sleep all morning and take naps. And living alone we can do anything that makes us happy
That old racoon (19:40) has a cut ear! Poor baby had a rough life. Love the babies. Mama keeps an eye out for danger for her kids though she takes thier food. Funny!
I just found your channel today. Oh my gosh I have always loved racoons. They are adorable and you have a whole bunch of them on your porch. Here in Wales UK we don't have anything like these critters. They are so fat with all those sausages you keep feeding them. Aww you have babies coming to feed too, how lovely. What is quite amazing is that they come and wait to be given the food instead of all storming over you and helping themselves.
My crew had peanut butter sandwiches, meatballs, and peanuts tonight. Lately, a skunk has also been coming. During the day hours, I feed the "Bushy" family of 5. (Squirrels) and of course, all my birds. Great times during my retirement.
This old man is so cute. He reminds me of my grandpa. The fact he buys all this food and feeds them and takes care of them is soooo sweet. It makes me sad though that the mother would eat first and take their food from her babies. :(
Sir, I only found you a little over a week ago..but I look forward to your videos every single day! Thanks again so much for sharing your time with the raccoons🦝🦝🦝🦝🦝🦝🦝🦝🦝🦝🦝🦝🦝🦝
Poor little feller looks all beat up he seen some bad times but I'm glad he's gonna be just fine now with you taking care of him and feeding him making him have a full belly
I just LOVE how well behaved they are!!! They go over and gently take the hotdogs and then proceed over into their respective corners to munch down on them!!! CUUUUUUTE!!!!❤💋❤💋❤
I like the new beat up guy. He seems to want to trust you already. It's always good to see an animal that's had a rough time find a place that appreciates them for what they are.
AMEN to THAT!
Jim's Diner where Kids Always Eat Free when Accompanied by an Adult👍🐾♥️ Love ALL you Do Jim. TY ♥️
Aww. Grabby is doing such a good job.

Grabby is learning. He’s a good boy
Buddy is all up in that bucket, he is so cute and the babies are adorable!! Hope you get some sleep tonight.
Thank you Jim for another lovely evening with your friends!
It’s going to be a very special day when the babies take the food out of Jim’s hand!😁
Thank you James, Please have a good sleep tonight 🕊🇨🇦
I love looking at your videos James they are very comforting to me at night and day to especially for these hard times. Beautiful racoons

Buddy said I’m tired of giving kisses!😂
Buddy, he's such a sweetheart.. 🙂
Babies are getting use to you, so cute. Look forward watching every night before head to bed.

I love watching these cute raccoons. I find myself waiting for your videos. Hope Buddy shows up tonight
The raccoon mother is like, "I just love my babies, I'd give my life for them! Everyone tells me what a devoted mother I am.... Hold on a minute Rascal, Jim just tossed some hot dogs to my babies - gotta go steal them from the little ones. Wouldn't want them choking on it...." LoL 😄‼️
Patience! That's the perfect name for her!
Aweee, Buddy said ill help myself to the hotdogs and the babies are so cute💕🥰 you names the sweet girl Patience I think that’s the perfect name for her.. and why is the momma stealing the food from the babies? Maybe she is pregnant🧐 anywho, love your videos James you are awesome all the way from Baltimore♥️
Damn, the little one got into battle position when he was growled at. They are ready to defend themselves already.

The babies look like little raccoon nuggets! So adorable! 👏🏽😭❤️
Hello fromSyracuse, NY - such fun hearing Mr. Jim and watching the masked gang.
Hi Jim, make sure you’re getting your sleep! We love seeing you and all the raccoons! Not just Buddy! 😊👍🏼🐾
The kids are waiting for Grandpa with the treats.
Love the lip smacking and crunching. 😊
Those babies are so cute they’re just all over that side of the porch they never stand still lol 😂
Jim the babies are learning the routine already. Put some meat on their bones haha you are such a sweet man!

Oh my goodness those babies are so cute. I like grabbie,
The babies are feeling more comfortable around you. No more staying on the stairs. They’re up in the action. Next they’ll be coming up to you begging like the big ones.
I feel bad for the scraggly guy but I'm glad he came up to get some food.
Karen - hey that's a cute name for him "Scraggly" LOL, he is new he may not be around long, they come and go. so darn cute!
Is Scraggly missing a piece of his ear? Sure looked like it. Poor thing 😢
Or even call him " Scratch" or "Scarface" !! LOL
@@myrnabergen5342 Scarface, lol. I love it.
Bless you, James. All the raccoons love you.💕 They are very lucky⭐️
Thanks for naming her Patience, she's one of my favourites!
Night all. Thanks James. Be well. 🐞🐾❤️
Those babies are so precious! We have 2 mamas and 2 teenagers that come to our deck, but they aren't people friendly yet. Hope you get some rest, Jim.
So excited to se Buddy back! And look at those adorable babies! Should be illegal to be that cute!
Buddy has learned he doesn't have to beg anymore if he can just get to the whole bucket. Grabby is learning manners !!!!
So good to see Buddy back tonight, even though he didn't act like himself , maybe he saving kisses for his girlfriend. The babies are just to cute , and Grabby is doing so much better taking his food .Thanks James for the share now get some sleep.
Im feeding 4 babies myself. Their mama is a good mama. She lets them eat for sbout 10 minutes before she joins them. I also feed my possums too. I love them all.
K think you should make the tattered one "general"! He's seen battle and servived! God bless you and the general!
Now that wild looking one knows where the good stuff is he will be fat and happy by next week!
Grabby is getting more gentle ❤🐺❤

Thanks for making my Sunday night! Excited to see the babies! 🦝🦝💖
Great video Jim. Love seeing the babies and Buddy. Thank you.
Cute little babies. Smart too! They know to trust you and get their bellies full with all the good food.
Yay! 😃 The grapes are coming! I love watching them eat grapes!😃
Make sure you get your rest please, be safe. 💤💤
So cute 😍 they seriously chew their food 32 times.
With so many focused on the world's chaos right now, it's a soothing blessing to the soul to watch your vids to start the day on a happy, positive, kind and loving note. Thank you so much for being a friend to these amazing animals and sharing the heartwarming joy of it all!❤
Feisty is always the last baby to leave! So cute you said he slept on the roost last night.
I Have a good time watching.
Buddy learned a new trick to sit by the bucket he can have all the dogs he wants
Awe that one's ear has been ate on. Buddy relaxing on the railing lol. Have a good night
These little fellows need you so take care of yourself.
Raccoons has gotta be way better than Prozac. Certainly better for your body. Thanks for the treatment, Dr. James. And speaking of health, you take care of yours, James.

Classic Buddy, lolling on his tummy while chowing down on hotdogs. Great night, thanks for sharing your world with us, James.
The left ear of the Scraggly raccoon looks like somebody took a bite out of it. Poor little thing.
Yes, I just mentioned this as well! Poor little guy.
Buddy playing hard to get...M.I.A.!

@@glomontero6011 Ain't it NICE!!!
@@glomontero6011 this comment made me crave retirement one day... I need to prepare
Glo Montero You tell ‘em 👍
He probably sleeps during the day a lot of older people do.
Amazing baby Raccoons
😍😍👍
Jim give mama a full dog to keep her busy while you feed the babies.
Those babies are just the cutest James! You do such a good job with all of them . . . So fun to watch! Thank you💚
James we in Colorado love you! Thank you for your love and care of your critters. Ignore the trolls out there.
What a great soul Jim has
That old racoon (19:40) has a cut ear! Poor baby had a rough life.
Love the babies. Mama keeps an eye out for danger for her kids though she takes thier food. Funny!
We love your videos! You have a big heart Mr. Blackwell. Your videos have gotten us through our two week quarantine.
Those babies are just so friggin cute. I want to squeeze them.🦝🦝🦝🦝💕🦝🦝💖🦝

I love the 1 that gets its hotdog & runs behind the gate.
I’m surprised that mommy is not bigger. She must not be very old. I love seeing those little ones enjoying the hotdog bits.
Are you famous in your town? Do they whisper, “There goes James Blackwood the Raccoon Whisperer” when you walk by?
Hi, Buddy! 😘😘😘
surprising a lot of people around here have no idea who I am I get recognized more in the city
The babies are precious
Hope you got some rest today and at least one good meal for yourself
The closeups of Buddy chowing down were the best.
The babies are getting less and less timid! Sure are cute to watch and they have attitudes as well.
My crew had peanut butter sandwiches, meatballs, and peanuts tonight. Lately, a skunk has also been coming. During the day hours, I feed the "Bushy" family of 5. (Squirrels) and of course, all my birds. Great times during my retirement.
You can sure tell those raccoons trust you either that or even a raccoons can pass up a free babysitter 😆
7/20/20 LOVE the sounds of them chewing ! Very very hot 110 today,♥️🐾♥️🐾♥️☘☘☘always enjoy you
Grabby is learning and Woody is something else.
This old man is so cute. He reminds me of my grandpa. The fact he buys all this food and feeds them and takes care of them is soooo sweet. It makes me sad though that the mother would eat first and take their food from her babies. :(
Best looking raccoons bar none!
We know you will take care of the new guy. Before long he will be one of the boys. You will have him fat and sassy before long.
they learn quick where the tasty food comes from
Buddy, Grabby, Mama, Rascal, Patience and all the babies❤️
Sir, I only found you a little over a week ago..but I look forward to your videos every single day! Thanks again so much for sharing your time with the raccoons🦝🦝🦝🦝🦝🦝🦝🦝🦝🦝🦝🦝🦝🦝
Too cute. I can't take it. The babies are so sweet!
Sleep is best! Please get your rest. Raccoons are happy 🦝😊🦝
🦝❤ Those babies are learning the routine ❤🦝
🤔💭 maybe Grabby is the Dad of the babies because he always comes with them
Poor little feller looks all beat up he seen some bad times but I'm glad he's gonna be just fine now with you taking care of him and feeding him making him have a full belly
