Hello? Ola?
Have you ever wondered if possums look the same everywhere? While we were out eagle watching we came across this little guy. From what I’ve read the poor little Wisconsin possums run the risk of losing their cute little ears to frostbite. I think this guy has been in the cold too long. Aren’t his little pinks toes/fingers/claws precious!
My son, Haden, is still in Missouri with his grandparents and he caught this guy one evening. Not literally caught, like he did the crow last week, but caught with the camera. I love his BIG ears, the possum’s, not Haden’s.
I wonder if the two possums would be able to talk to each other if they met. Would they giggle at each other’s accents or would they speak two totally different languages?
I love these little guys! They are just tooooo cute!!
I've never seen a possum before, they are so cute.
possums? cute? omigod. *shudder* they give me the creepies!!!!!!
Very Cute, love the pink toes! True Story: One night it was hot and my
parents left the back door open for a breeze (they live in southern CA), a
possum came in, went into my parents bedroom and took a nap by my dad's
side of the bed. My dad reached down and thought it was their pet a Cairn
Terrier and started petting it, scratching it's back. That's when he
realized it wasn't Mandy the terrier, but an intruder! Possums are very
dangerous, so they ended up calling animal control to come and capture the
"house guest!"
Possums are interesting creatures with the ability to look adorable or
disgusting. You've caught the cute side of one. Sometimes they look like
giant, fat, mean rats and that's when they give me the willies. We had a
possum coming up onto our porch every night to eat the cat food at one
point. He was one BIG possum from eating all that cat food.
They look so cute when they're not smooshed up roadkill.
Great pictures. They showcase the differences so well!
These are all great shots from the Bald Eagle Watching place. It looks
like a really awesome place to go photographing.
What good photos this is the closest I've ever come to a possum!
possum and cute in the same sentence. Accck!
VERY cute! I find when animals are this cute it's hard to remember they're
wild animals and want to reach out and touch them. Which of course could
lose me a few fingers. We don't have possums here but we do have
porcupines for roadkill and they make for one big bump if they happen to
walk out as you're driving by!
Very, very cute!
Hello,
The photos you got eagle watching are great. I love the ears...
Are you hosting fun Monday and have you decided on a theme/topic?
I'll check back tomorrow...
have a great weekend
Ours look just like those. I think they might have different dialects, but
I bet they could communicate.
Those are some really cool pictures...I didn't even know what it was at
first...I thought it was a badger....me dumb...:)
I'm actually kinda scared of these guys but I was able to get my shots from
the car, I just hung out the window a little. I'm sure Haden was under the
tree, near that possum! They really creep me out and I can't believe some
of you guys have had them inside. Scary!
What a cute little animal ! I have never seen one in liberty I think I saw
them in a Zoo. We don't have wild animals here around except a squirrel
from time to time.
