Over the last year we could hear these little fellas running around on our deck and on our roof. It was only recently while we have been watching the Olympics late at night that we have met two possums we have appropriately named Polly and Paddy. Research on the web allowed us to tell the difference between the two. Polly (below) is really grey and has a little pouch which as it turns out may have a little baby, we shall see in the next couple months. Paddy is larger and has brown on his shoulders and back, minus the pouch. They eat the bird seeds and after several attempts at trying different types of food, carrots, strawberries and tomatoes are the favorites.
