Otter & Raccoon

River Otter

Otters are aquatic weasels. You may find them climbing around on banks, or splashing around in the water, especially around dusk.

Raccoon

Raccoons are not aquatic, but frequently found near water, especially at night, when their eye-shine gives them away.

The problem with scupper carts is that they always seem to need a third hand to set up, and that hand is usually attached to someone else, in which case you don't really need a scupper cart, do you? Newer models have a built-in kickstand that looks so useful, it got me thinking. For twelve dollar's worth of plumbing parts at Home Depot, I made this.
