Stripey possum at creekside cottage

I have only had two sitings of a stripey possum in the 16 years I have been living here, and both of these were in the early days. So you can imagine how gobsmacked i was when the guests staying at Creekside described the stripey frolicking on a palm frond just off the balcony of the cottage the other night. They had no idea of the significance of the siting. It's so great to know they are still around and so close to us.
