As I was testing a recipe for Tonno alla Ghiotta yesterday, this little fellow stopped by. About the size of a small cat, and weirdly adorable, this young opossum scrounged for leftovers I'd tossed to the crows, then scratched through the snow for any bits of seed or suet the birds might have dropped from the feeders hanging from the iron hook above. I'm told opossums eat tons of ticks, so I hope this little guy and his family hang around.
