AUSTRALIA ~ The Antipodes

AUSTRALIA ~ The Antipodes
I love a sunburnt country / A land of sweeping plains / Of ragged mountain ranges / Of droughts and flooding rains / I love her far horizons / I love her jewel-sea / Her beauty and her terror / The wide brown land for me / ~ Dorothea Mackellar (1885-1968)

You have possums, it never occurred to me but it makes sense. It is the only marsupial native to the Americas.

Oh, my, a wee baby possum! We have them here - they are rather ugly as adults.

It has beady eyes just as i remember. I once looked up a chimney, and a possum was at the other end looking down at me. All I saw where its beady eyes.
