Possum Magic!

I got a surprise on our morning walk. 




















A possum was clearly disturbed from it's normal nocturnal routine. It seemed to be flustered by the activity. Hopefully it found a safe place to sleep as too many dogs and birds around, and of course, people.









I am a little worried this is the second time in a week I've seen an animal in the wrong place (or wrong time) in this area. Something seems to be disturbing them and that can't be a good thing!

  1. Why can't people or animals leave your wombats alone? They are totally herbivorous and not a danger to anyone.

  3. Your possums are so much cuter than American opossums. I hope that cutie found a safe place to rest.

  5. I've never seen them climb trees like that. We see raccoons do that though. Neat photos!

  7. How cute....I know here that people become very afraid if they see a fox or raccoon in the daytime because of the possibility of rabies, but even nocturnal animals can be out in the daytime for some reason or another ..Michelle
