Different baby post indeed

I normally blog about my human baby, but I thought I would share another kind of baby we found in the wilderness that is our backyard last night. You've seen posts about snakes, coons, and bunnies....time to give some love to our friend the opossum. That's right, folks, we have ourselves a gen-u-ine baby marsupial in all its ugly and awkward glory. My guess is baby opossum is residing with mommy and daddy opossum somewhere under our back deck (as this is not our first opossum spotting in five years). Last night, however, baby opossum ventured out and climbed up one of our fruit trees in the backyard, and Remsen shot a picture of him perched on the tree limb.
