Opossom in Winter


Opossom in Winter

I blamed all the missing suet on my squirrel friends, then one night I spotted this little buddy in my feeder. They have such a cute little face.

What a perfect picture! One can read on his face this cottage is little small for vacation, but gives some refreshment. LOL. What is the name of this animal?

I found it is opposum, long long time ago, lol.
What do you mean as Eskimo wearing fur? You mean fur hat? Noooooooooooo. I will never kill this lovely creature for hat.

They really are endearing creatures. The bird feeder is only a foot from my kitchen window. He was looking at me while I was cleaning the dishes!
