Opened the door last night and I thought I saw a cat about 40 feet away in the brush. When it looked at me, I realized it was definitely NOT a cat. A Virginia Possum if the pics on the internet are right. I wasn't thrilled with it being so close (being a city boy), but the net sez they're not really a problem.

Right now a feral cat has hunted it across the area. Another has decided that he looks pretty tasty and is waiting off to the side...

This is definitely 'the country.'
