Maybe mice...
Maybe birds...
Well actually...
It's Raccoon's!!!
When the rain started leaking onto the kitchen table, Hector went up to find out why the roof was leaking and he found about 5 holes up there, want to see??
So up the guys go...
to cut a hole in the roof.
The sound of that skill saw, scared the mother, right out of there, here you see her descending the tree, using the ladder that was conveniently placed there for her escape!!
A closer look at mom fleeing the scene!
She was so freaked out she never cam back to move her babies, or to feed them, but we kept hearing them, and finally about 5 days later they went up again, and ripped up 2 sheets of roof sheeting, and found these little (now very hungry) babies.
The next day the wildlife guy came and took them to where ever they take orphaned baby raccoon's.
But not end of story. The insurance company has been drying out our gyproc, and will be replacing some of it in our kitchen, and redoing the whole ceiling of the kitchen and dining room, and my office area. It has been 8 weeks from the first leaking, and on Tuesday they will start the work inside, then after that they will completely redo the whole roof. Looking forward to the end of all of this.
