Possums or Opossums

Whichever they are, Will doesn't like 'em. The other day one of these ugly critters got on our backyard fence and Will (and, of course, the rest of the tribe) saw him or her. Will carried on and on for a couple of hours after the thing jumped down off the fence and into the tall laural bushes on the other side of our fence. He ran back and forth next to the fence looking through the cracks between the boards, finally gave up, but stayed on guard at the end of the pool, just in case.
I have been reading up on these good looking animals trying to figure out if they are possums or opossums. It seems in Austrailia they are possums and and in the western hemisphere they are opossums. A guy in Kentucky says "it doesn't matter, they all taste the same."

The weather around here the last couple of days has been great! Will has decided that there is only one thing that is better than laying in the sun. What could that be , you wonder, Well, better is laying in the sun on someones lap, getting belly rubs.
