Weekly Winners – May 10 – May 16th – Baby Opossum

This week’s photo inventory was sparse. I was sick all week. But I did snag a couple of shots and I didn’t have to travel far. I went briefly to Elizabeth City’s Potato Festival. Even closer to home, a baby opossum with a head injury (don’t worry- injury not pictured) wandered into the yard. He’s currently sleeping in a box and waiting to be claimed by a wildlife rehabilitator.

More pictures of the baby opossum can be found on my Flickr site.

Good for you taking the baby opossum to get help. Have to say I’m not too fond of the grown ups, but the baby is kinda cute.

I guess it is cute. The picture of Ryan is cute. Why did the chicken cross the road. To show a opposum it can be done!

Super snaps for an illness-plagued week! I love the conversational atmosphere of the clowns. And the little possum is so cute in his raggedyness, isn’t he?
