Field Notes

Description:

the woods at the end of my street got torn down to build new apartments, so we've been getting lots of critter sightings on the back porch. the raccoons and skunks are usually gone by the time i grab the camera, but the opossums tend to take a slower approach to life :)

Habitat:

suburban backyard
