In Melbourne possums are loved or loathed...well hated is the usual.So I'm able to report a good news story on the much maligned creature.
My back yard is surrounded by trees to the south and east.Posss began eating a liquid amber tree a fee months ago not a leaf was spared, over the summer the darlings have managed to kill the 20 year old tree.

Now I'm not sad at all as this tree blockedy view of the celestial pole. Now I can see south and all the beauties that brings all I need is to get the possums to eat my neighbours gum tree to the east...not likely ... Then the railway stations lights! Matt
