Anne - I wonder did your secret pal tell you that possums also have the habit of staging large, noisy fights in the tree-tops at night?? We have ring-tailed possums in our neighbourhood (in suburban Sydney - you don't have to live in the country to have possums around) and they apparently have a variety of homes around the area, moving onto the next one when they've exhausted the food in a particular area. They were very noisy here a few months ago, till one night they came down out the trees and ate ALL the new plants (many, many pounds worth!) in our garden. A couple of nights later, I noticed all was quiet, and discovered they'd moved on (presumably to the next freshly-planted garden!) The ring-tailed (so called because they have a white ring around the tail) possums use the overhead electricity wires as a sort of aerial footpath to walk along and cross the streets. It's a bit hair-raising, watching them - they wobble so much I keep waiting for them to fall off, but I've never seen one fall yet. Ruth Budge (Sydney, Australia)
