Day One Hundred and Ninety-Three: Masked Bandit


I caught this furry little guy grabbing a snack near Emily's place today (leave it to my photojournalistic curiosity to investigate the unusual rustling noise coming from the nearby garbage dumpster).

As it turns out, this masked bandit dropped into his local diner for a secondhand meal and realized too late that he probably shouldn't have come the day after "garbage collection" day. While their was enough refuse to provide a decent menu for ol' Rocky here, the recently emptied dumpster did not provide a stairway back out tot he free world.

Trapped red-handed, this striped-tailed thief had no choice but to pose for a brief photo shoot.

Other pics not included here illustrate his efforts (in vain) to escape, his apparent dislike for aanyone hovering over him with a camera, and his love for a particularly tasty Oscar Mayer hot dog container.

Eventually someone tossed a couple of fresh bags of garbage into the dumpster and provided him with a way out...and a meal to go!
