Will, I was out of my chair like a shot when I saw Momma O trundling along outside my window. I felt bad because I knew I was making her uncomfortable when I went outside to take that first snap. And Travis, if I knew how to do time lapse, I would love to for the fence along the back of our house. Seems be a great E/W thoroughfare in our neighborhood.

Ohhhhhh, that’s too precious! I wish I could give the baby in front a little boost, though…he seems to be slipping a bit.

Ha! Any yooz calls me Francis — ‘n I killya!

I’m very jealous. What an awesome thing you got to witness in that possum momma shuttling her young’uns. And isn’t that remarkable how she can make her way along the narrow fence slats carrying all her babies!? Damn.

I wouldn’t worry about this family too much. Certainly being on the move during the day makes it appear as if their nest has been compromised or otherwise disturbed, but hopefully she’ll find a new sfae place to call home where here babes’ll be safe.

I always thought of Will as the partron saint of beleagured bikers, but he does a fair job with the critters too.

I bet they are glad they are by you and not me. For reasons I can’t explain the hawks were around this morning feeding.
