This masked bandit was rather nonchalantly climbing a hemlock tree around 9 a.m. today at Northeast 89th Street and 12th Avenue Northeast. Judging from the number of crows dive-bombing him, he might have been looking for a nest.
Maple Leaf is known to have roaming packs of these bandits, with as many as six adults and young (known as “kits”) previously seen in the backyard of this same house. They can grow to three feet and nearly 50 pounds, so keep pets away!
Seen this bandit on your street recently?
