Hey guys I just want to inform you that we had visitors last evening, not humans but animals. Yesterday evening I heard some noise from the backyard where we have a tent used to store firewood as well as unwanted things. I thought it was rats or so, but actually it was mongoose and 6 of them were there. The visitors even plucked a ripe papaya. I didn't manage to capture it in my phone. Picture Credits: Web Sources.

Well, aren't they cute! I hope you weren't expecting to eat that papaya yourself. I had a plum tree in my back yard but ended up cutting it down because the squirrels were constantly beating me to MY plums, even going after unripe ones!

@cacay1 I don't think so, anyway currently we are not plucking any papayas from that tree. It's now given to 6 of them, let them eat.

@fishtiger58 actually the photo is of meerkats but they shows much resemblance to mongoose. I didn't get the exact picture that I need from internet, that's why I uploaded this.
