I have discovered one reason why the birdbath has been empty in the morning, despite being fairly full in the evening. (I had assumed raccoon, because I know we have them visiting the yard.) I was poking through the backyard video from last night, and discovered that it's the perfect height for deer to drink out of, now that the pond is frozen over.
Last night, we had a pod of five does/yearlings shortly after twilight, and a small buck early in the am. And a huge raccoon. On other nights, I have seen a possum, three different skunks, and at least three raccoons, one of which may or may not be the one I saw on last night's video.
