@loren Here's an opossum that visited our yard a few years back. We still have some living on our hill but they don't come down this close any more since we got Coraline. #MarsupialMonday #photography

A nice shot of one of the several opossums that timeshare the food bowl with the feral Stripy Cat.
I believe three opossums visit: Two siblings and a gigantic opossum whose relstionship to the others is unclear. This one is the smallest of the three. It was starved the first time it showed up and, I suspect, would not have survived without being able to raid Stripy's food bowl.
