    This lady is by here often.I think she hides her babies(twins)nearby.

    She doesn't seem to be afraid as this is my front yard.

    She is now getting closer to the big cedar Tree.

    Its almost dark and we never saw her come out.I think she bedded down with her twins.

    This Possum comes to dinner every night after everything else has finished.

    Some of these pictures are bad as all were taken through my storm door.

    I think your photographs are just fine Glenda. :-D I can see you have a great variety of wildlife around you but I much prefer the doe and the possum to the kittens. (I'm highly allergic to cats you see.)

    I hope you're now feeling much better - it's good to see you posting again. :stew2:

    Glenda--You really outdid yourself today with these animal pics.
    How do you feel about that doe munching on your mimosa?
    That possum is fattening-up on someone's food!

    Thanks for showing these interesting fotos, it's always nice to see pics from your home place.

    Nice shots Glenda. I like the kitten's and that Possum sure is interesting. We have Possum here now, but I've only ever seen them dead on the road :(

    You know I love those baby kitties :D That possum is kind of cute too. I know most people don't like them but since we don't have them here I don't get to see them very often!

    We have 4 kitties that just disappeared 2 last week and 2 yesterday.We had 2 babies die.We had so many and now 4 is left .I think a Raccoon or Chicken Snake is taking them.
    Sjoerd I don't mind the Doe eating my Mimosa but she ate my Black Pearl peppers and as long as she leaves the tomatos alone I'm ok.
    I wish I could ship you the little yellow kitten Deanna.The one we call Hank has 4 white feet and a
    white face.
    I thought everyone had Possums.I was wrong for sure.
    Eileen I may sound mean but the cats and kittens can't live inside my home.I have Oreo and Kevins Pit Bull Vaga until he goes back home.That will be soon as he has found a job .He and Linda will go back home.

    Great pics, Glenda! Good thing nothing can hurt a mimosa tree, right? That 'possum is pretty round! I'm kind of fascinated by possum.... but they sort of creep me out a little. I thought I saw one under my porch one night when Austin escaped, but when I looked the next day, I saw it was only a rock! (I was glad, to tell you the truth).
