I am usually a stickler for being truly "wordless" on Wednesdays, but I wanted to explain that this guy really is as close as he looks. I used a normal lens and was sitting about two feet away from him on the opposite side of the sliding glass doors. He was much bigger than he appears in the photo--approximately the size of a small cat. He surprised us one night. My husband turned around and said, "Whoa! Look!" and he was sitting at our deck door, busily chewing something.
Is that a...possum? It looks so cute and not terrifying in this photograph.
ReplyDeleteTerrific photo! We have lots of possums around here too- they are odd animals.
ReplyDeleteYes! it is a possum! I never really thought of them as cute, but then again, I've never thought of them as terrifying either.
ReplyDeleteI just wanted to thank you for your posts on CC and TOG. We've been part of a CC community for 4 yrs now, and I always pray and re-evaluate each yr if we are on the path God has for us. This yr I looked at TOG and found it is completely wrong for us. It was actually a blessing to read about the comparison's here b/c it motivated me to look at TOG a second time. You know how it is just a comfort when you are assured anew that you are doing what is right for your family? Anyway, God bless your schooling endeavors and eeewww on the opossum! Not a fan!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Ann...glad I could be an encouragement. I'll confess that I'm kind of "ewww" on the opossum too. They're sort of creepy little animals, but marsupials, which is intriguing. I've only ever seen them dead on the road, so meeting one face-to-face was different!
