New video out!
Delayed by a week due to being out filming for likely the last time this year, but the second bit from the Texas trip is now up on the YouTube channel...and it's another short installment for those who aren't into my favorite animal as snakes once again do not make an appearance. The lizards rule this one...as well as another appearance of a mammal that was only seen on the channel for the first time in the last video.

Our back patio security camera apparently also moonlights as a nature cam. It caught a ringtail using our building as a commute trail. 🦝

Possum Update: Back from the office late but possums waiting. Barney the brushtail on the left, two ringtails on the right. Mr Ratty also there and Chewie the brushtail arrived a bit late but got something extra.

Possum Update: There is always one that hogs the buffet. The brushtail is there for the duration but the ringtail is working on it and the native rat is going back and forth. I think it takes food away from the dish to eat at leisure later.

Possum Update: Got home from the office and the possums were waiting. Originally Chewie the brushtail in the eaves tray & a ringtail on the rail. By the time I'd prepared their bowls there were 4. Here are 3 of them - Chewie is up eating by herself.

This little ringtail was hiding on the tree branch, hoping because he couldn't see me, I couldn't see him. 😊

It's wet tonight. I think it will be back under the eaves before too long.

Possum Update: No brushtails today. The two eaves trays had ringtails in residence. This little one was shy but still took the date.

The mysterious, fluffy-tailed critter isn't usually seen in the daytime.

Today I'll share you a sleepy raccoon! 🦝
A band of them found a hollow tree and decided to rest in there, looking outside from time to time.
