Opossum


A possum digging for sunflower seeds under my bird feeders. They are such misunderstood creatures and have been around for 70 million years!   They are actually very docile (unless cornered) and have an amazing immune system.  Their body temperature is too low for them to carry the rabies virus and they are also immune to snake venom!
