Forlorn Raccoon Cleverly Seeks Shelter Under a Decorative Umbrella on a Rainy Day in Kansas

A forlorn little raccoon sought shelter under BriEffect‘s decorative mailbox umbrella in a clever effort to stay dry on a very rainy day in Topeka, Kansas.

I was going to check the mail on this rainy morning and came across this little fellow desperately trying to stay dry under my mailbox’s cement umbrella. He let me get face to face long enough to capture this adorable moment!
