Heart attack material...

Last night's visitor...

So there we were last night all settled down for the night. Boys were in bed and then Timothy needs to go to the toilet one last time...

He goes to turn the light on and shut the window (as he always does) and there a head moves on the outside of the windowsill... What the???

He found a possum sitting on the ledge. It gave him the hugest fright as it was not expected to be there... Now we have no trees, no fruit trees and only a couple of rose bushes that have mature rose hips on them... So what on earth was it doing at our place???

When we went out to check it out there it was larger than life and just staring at us. It didn't move at all... Timothy got his iPod and quickly did a video on the animal and Russell dutifully took pictures for my blog here :)

It was gone this morning but it left a calling card all the same... Still stumped as to why it was at our place... Guess we will never know...

Cheers Damaris
