The flash of the camera washes things out. Jeans and a blue sweatshirt.... But it sort of looks like a hazmat suit....🙂
my wife out lawed me from harming (dispatching ) the critters some years ago
sometimes I just haul them off other times just let them move along on their own
just came in from a yard walk to strech my legs its 2:00 am what I saw was two rabbits, two skunks and one opossum, and assorted cats during my walk
oh , sorry no partage in a pear tree ( just the pear tree we have two of those )
When I started using game cameras at deer feeders I noticed that Possums are wiser than I first realized.
When they find a food source at a deer feeder they arrive on time each night. Can almost set your watch time by them.
When them Possums start getting into the elevated cat food bowl on the porch they are tougher than my cats.
I have to take the cat food bowl away and set a live trap to catch the intruder Possums. Several of the Big Boar possums never sull and play dead, they get mean.
My outside cats stay out of the live trap after being caught couple times.
My OLD watch dog has retired, sleeps all night and no longer bothers the Possums or Racoons. Time to start raising a young guard pup.
I had a Mountain Cur dog that would catch and chew on Possums and the Possum would play dead. That dog really had a funny look on it's face sometime later when it seen the possum come alive and climb a tree or fence to get away. Appeared the dog thought maybe the Possum was possessed or ghostly, because he had put the kill on the animal and it came back alive.
