What else do you think we have in our gum tree ?
As it was getting dark, I saw a mother possum jump from the tree to the fence.
She had her baby pick-a-back.
I t was having what we call a “piggy-back.”
I saw her crawl along the fence to the shed.
F ather had put apples in the shed.
He had packed them in straw.
In the morning, we saw marks of the mother’s claws on an apple.
S he must have had one in her paws.
