Meet Mr. Herman Opossum

No touching this Guy!!!!

~~~

Those teeth were like needles!

~~~

Opossums are not really that eye appealing.....
but this Fellow was cute!

A few mornings ago AJ went out to check on our Pigeons

and found that something had reached through the wire

during the night and snatched one of our Baby Birds. He

found the remains of the Little thing and figured it was

a raccoon. We have had raccoons in our back yard before, so

they became our first suspects.

He put the remains of the Baby into a Live Trap Cage in

hopes that the Bandit would return that night and take the bait.

We would then take the racoon to the woods, let him go

and he could live Happily Ever After.

Well the next morning AJ gets up and checks the trap

and sure enough there was a Critter in it.

A Young Opossum!

Now we did not blame the Crime on this Little Guy.

He was innocent.

He was in the wrong place at the wrong time!

He was looked after and then taken to the woods and

let go.

Before he left our back yard AJ had already named him

"Herman".

Herman was not a Happy Camper here with us,

as you can see in the pictures.

He complained alot!
