I HAD A POSSUM THAT USED TO VISIT HERE AND I CALLED HIM PEMBROKE THE POSSUM AND THEN I THOUGHT THAT WOULD BE A GOOD IDEA FOR A KIDS STORY BOOK… WE FEED THE POSSUMS HERE. THEN WE HAD A BAT JUST ONE SINGLE BAT THAT USED TO COME AND STAY OVER NIGHT AND A FEW TIMES STAYED DURING THE DAY ON TREES… I THOUGHT HE WAS A GOTHIC METAMORPHOSING VAMPIRE BAT… HE WAS CUTE BUT I WAS WORRIED MY NEIGHBOR KILLED HIM.
THE BAT FROM BOGANVILLE.

A FEW YEARS AGO WE HAD A BUTCHER BIRD WE CALLED BB FOR BUTCHER BIRD WE USED TO FEED AND WE STILL HAVE BUTCHER BIRDS THAT COME FOR FOOD.
WE USED TO HAVE IBIS AND MINORS AND CROWS AND MAGPIES AS WELL COMING FOR FOOD… TIL THEY ALL STARTED FIGHTING AND THEN THE POOR POSSUMS GOT ATTACKED BY THE CROWS AND EVEN THOUGH WE HAD A POSSUM BOX THE BIRDS USED TO SCREECH AND ATTACK THE POOR LITTLE POSSUM SLEEPING.
MRS BIRD WE CALL ONE FEMALE BUTCHER BIRD SHE WILL TAKE FOOD FROM YOUR FINGERS AND SHE IS VERY GENTLE AND EVERY SPRING FOR THE LAST GOD KNOWS HOW LONG SHE BRINGS HER BABIES TO VISIT AND THEIR FATHER AND OLDER SIBLINGS FOR FOOD SOMETIMES. A FEW OF HER BABIES HAVE DIED FROM DEFORMITIES IN THE LEGS AND FEET THEY CANT BALANCE WELL… BUT SHE IS SO TAME. – See more at: http://yesiconfess.com/read.php?id=5927b0a2f74458579b3838fb601a5c25&title=my-wildlife-pals#sthash.kr9PSqC7.dpuf
