This adorable bandit making off with the fountain from our birdbath. I'm sure she was thinking, "I'll be able to wash my hands anywhere!" Until she pulled it out of the water and it stopped working.

We had similar monkeyshines with the trashcan pandas in Sunnyvale, CA after we moved there. I never grew up with racoons, and didn't know about their wiles.
I ignorantly tried to approach them while they were busy in the water of the previous owners' fish pond thing doing what I thought was simply "something racoonish". They were unhappy with me when I did that. They also didn't seem to like our dog, a feeling which was mutual.
We had one of these and the first time it happened I stopped the raccoons from hauling it off (they had already got it all the way across the porch), but the next time it was just... gone. Never did figure out where they took it.
