Late Night Visitor

While sitting out on the verandah enjoying the stillness and the starry night I heard a scratching on the electricity pole animal guard. My torch revealed a brush tailed possum. I have difficulty with night time shots with my point and shoot so if any one has some advice on how to get a better focus I'd appreciate it.
Glad you captured him with your camera! Nocturnal animals are very difficult.

Good capture. Would you like some of the ones that keep invading my house?

What a visitor Margaret, I 'm glad we don't have them around here.

So very cute, but apparently NOT if they get into the house :) lovely shot

@cejaanderson the whole photo shoot would have been a sight. I had to climb over a barbed wire fence, balance a torch on him/her to help the camera while the dog complained all the while because she was tied up and couldn't join in the adventure.

@swilde Thanks Sue. Definitely don't want one of yours. I'm hoping this one was just passing by. Fortunately we don't see many out here on the farm.

Well captured and night easy at night.

I am sure it didn't wait around for you to take too many shots. Great shot - love the torch light on the pole too.
