aristotle on possums



"In all things of nature there is something of the marvelous" aristotle

possums have opposable thumbs on their hind feet. they eat virtually anything, including snails, slugs, mice, stale popcorn, and carrion. this one has been cleaning up under our bird feeder. the opossum society of america calls them "nature's little sanitation engineers."

pogo was a possum and i love pogo.
