Occasional Toronto: Strong As Steel

Strong As Steel

While wandering along a laneway (as is my habit) I spotted this fierce raccoon atop a fence by one of the laneway house. It probably means that the house gets a lot of visits from real raccoons which is not surprising in this city with a huge population of them.
