Hungry Visitor

It was dusk & I was about to close my blinds and put away my camera & tripod when I saw this large possum. It was eating birdseed under my feeder. I took this shot thru the window and had to lighten it up considerably since it was getting dark outside. Some darker shots I didn't keep showed she was female. She may have been pregnant from her plumpness & needed all the calories she could get.
