"Possum! I Know You Are In There!"

My stewardship of my neighbour's farm dogs continues, and today we went for a walk up the hill behind their orchard. On the way, we passed this huge macrocarpa shelter belt that keeps the worst of the southerlies off the pip and stone fruit.

Mia here is a bit keen on possums, and whenever we go up the hill, no matter what route, she'll always go to her favourite trees where she knows her nocturnal nemeses have their daytime sleep.

So here she is, trying her best to scale the trunk and get stuck into the sleeping marsupials.
