Tonight a raccoon and a possum were on my deck simultaneously!
Went to feed my friend's cats, and this possum invited itself to breakfast.
Another beautiful, mild, sunny & dry day. When I took Fred outside earlier (George opted to sunbathe in the catio), he was intrigued by a noise in the ti-tree, but neither of us could see anything. When George came bolting out a little while later, I grabbed him &saw a cute little ringtail possum not far above us. Unusual to still be out at that time of morning. I’ll put out some apple tonight by way of recompense for any anxiety bit suffered. Needless to say, the cats were quickly brought inside. (George has just managed to open the garage door in the laundry. Better check what he’s getting up to…)
The "o" in "opossum" is a Japanese honorific.
The possum had moved to the side porch when Orange Boy showed up. Here he is making a quick retreat after I shooed him away. #StrayKittyUpdate #CatsOfMastodon #Possums #PossumsOfMastodon
This rascal stopped by during a lull in the rain. #Possums #PossumsOfMastodon
For the first time in over a month I walked through the Fitzroy Gardens to go to the free tram zone in the CBD to catch a tram to work. I am recovering from bruised ribs and was boringly sensible about recovery so not much walking over the last few weeks because that made the pain worse. No pain from the walk today - yay!
I saw a possum scarper across the path from one tree to the next. It made me think of living in Singapore where I would gasp with joy seeing a squirrel doing the same. The way that the possum ran was like it was a heftier squirrel. I am guessing it is a young one that may have pestered someone in the family and was kicked out until it behaved better? They are nocturnal creatures so you don't usually see them during daylight. However, with our ridiculous extension of daylight saving time, it was only around half an hour after sunrise when I took this photo.
So there you go. My philosophical deep thought for the day: A possum is a heftier form of a squirrel.
Have a good day!
#Melbourne #possums
Many years ago I was estranged by my human #family
This is my only family now and i love them, they visit me every evening!

"Little Possum" teableau for 03/21/25
Primeval forager,
gentle, quiet.
Make garden pests their steady diet;
But gods forbid the dog should spy it,
Or else ensues
unholy riot.
@possumeveryhour Im sorry USA but Aussie #possums win every time

#Hobart Farm Gate #Markets

"Would you like a taste sir?""
Dont mind if i do.
Are you getting the hints of oak on this, getting peat on that one?"
"Mate all im getting is smashed!
See you next sunday!
By the time I left I was half cut.
The snakes belong here
"Years-long research project finds snakes become 'very disoriented', lose weight and get sick when relocated.The snakes belong here. They have always been here and it's us humans coming in needing to learn how to live better with snakes."
