Hi Jen,
Yes I know what you mean about sitting quietly and teasing the possums, when I had Bannockburn Observatory up to end 2007, there were endless nights when it felt like I had the sky to myself, while I shared it with the local wildlife calling distantly in the background such as the curlews, plovers, and possums. It all added to the whole experience. Rolling the roof back to close up at 1am was always done reluctantly on those nights, and I can clearly remember thinking I was so lucky to experience them!
Now that I am a little further north at Windaroo Lakes, I don't have the bush sounds as often, but I still count myself lucky that we have reasonably dark skies halfway between Brisbane and the Gold Coast. Keep up the good work.
Clear skies, and keep looking up.
