Little monkeys! Sounds as though you have plenty of entertainment. How magical to have your very own possum circus.
I live basically on the bank of a creek with lots of trees. I love watching the squirrels (who occasionally tap on our window for take-out...we don't feed them), birds, skunks, and if we're lucky, herons visit the creek to fish.
I couldn't survive without animals to watch. I even love the crows - such smart bugguhs.

Same here. I love where I live and have a creek at the bottom of our place that is fast flowing in winter.....sadly suburbia is encroaching but we have a very diverse bird life, frogs, lizards, possums, even a resident koala.

(And........spiders LOL)

Some day I'll make the trek to Oz. I've always wanted to see it. I likely have relatives to look up as my Grandma was born there.

    Oops...strayed off topic.

    Please accept my very Canadian apologies :D
    Give it enough time and someone will name a tank or mod or RDA after one of the animals you mentioned. Maybe The Herron? That could work. Once that happens your post will be on topic so you will be good to go.:D

    I feel safer here, thank you. Going to Oz seems like another planet.

    It's funny.....whenever I travelled to the U.S. for work everything was so similar and just when you got comfortable that you knew how to speak the language and know what things were, you would stumble over something simple and people looked at you as if you were an alien or speaking in tongues :p

    Heck, I can feel like that sometimes just by crossing the border into Washington!

    I got a running commentary by text when my daughter was driving from KC to California. She said the salt flats looked like something totally unearthly.

    This is from the railing on my deck. Most Australian birds are noisy but these Kookaburras are just beautiful to listen to.

    Wait wait wait, that picture can't be right. I know the song I learned as a kid said "Kookaburra sits in the old Gumtree" and that one ain't in no gumtree.

    That's a ash tree the gum trees are on the side. Let me go find a pic of Colin the koala

    This is taken from the trees just outside my kitchen window

    Yes the salt flats are a "different world".
    The mountains are to my east, and the lake & salt flats are to the west.
