My Opossum Encounter October 22, 2008

We have been having the prettiest days this Fall so far.  The prayer gardens at Oral Roberts University are just beautiful.  To get a little quiet time, I went out to the prayer gardens recently to sit and relax.  I heard something behind me, so I turned around and there was a little animal walking around behind me.  At first, I thought it was a rat because of its long tail.  After closer observation, I decided it must be a baby opossum.

Do you see it??  My i-phone doesn’t zoom, so this is the best picture I could get…     I sure wish my i-phone had a zoom.  On the other hand, this is a great picture considereing it was snapped from a phone.

Doesn’t it have a long tail??
