Karen lives a few blocks in either direction from Porter and Davis Squares. She reports (passed on by Bob La Trémouille):
I have possum and racoons that come in my yard, skunk too. Bluejays and Cardinals sometimes too. I think also a few other species of bird, Marilyn mentioned Grackels, something like that when I described some before. Hope you are well.
Sometimes when the racoons are rolling around playing on my back porch they sound like cats screaming.
At times last fall the possum, I dont know if there is more than one still sits in my lilac bush waiting for the food to be put out, and hangs by its tail on one of the trees. My mother thought she was hallucinating at 530am. Just before sunrise.
