A few years ago I was observing in my back yard. Had to pop upstairs for something and left my 12" Collapsable Dob pointing straight up. Came back down to find a brush-tail possum sitting up on the Spider!!
"Shoo Possum" didn't work. Had to lift it off, but the little critter latched on and didn't want to let go. Eventually got it off without being bitten. And Thankfully, there was no possum wee on my primary mirror.
Lesson learned, and with a dose of Get-Out-of-jail-Free. (We also have lots of flying-foxes in our trees who occasionally leave 'messages' as they fly over)
