I ran across some pictures that were taken years ago when I first moved into this house. It was a late summer night and I heard something trying to scratch and/or open the back door. When I realized it wasnt a person, I grabbed a cheap point and shoot camera and took a few shots. When I opened them, they were all just pitch black. I used photoshop to adjust them and heres what came out.

And heres another summer night when I like to keep the door open while I watch TV at night. Damn critters always walk right in and have their way.

There was a few opossums (adult and baby) that have come in too.....once I found a baby opossum way back in the bedroom which means he had to walk into the house and make his way to the back of the house. It was a PITA to get him out of the house.

My damn cats are friends w the squirrels in the backyard too :/ Ive seen them many times laying on the grass while a squirrel comes up to them, rubs noses and keeps looking for food.

lol yeah..I removed the screens on the front and back door when I moved in. I hate screen doors but know how helpful they can be. Im prolly gonna buy those hideaway screens that hide completely away when theyre not pulled out.

Kinda pricey but a better option than a ghetto screen door IMO.

Mario: LMAO umm bit of a hint it's not ALL "the bush" we have cities!

Having said that I have a possum that thinks it's hilarious to stomp around on the awning outside my bedroom window at 4am.........

I'm preparing a surprise for him today I'm going to spray the metal awning cover with dry film lubricant so when he makes the leap from the other side he should keep going :evil2:

Funny you mention that Chris....... laying in bed this morning I was going over a circuit in my head but I'll try the dry lube thing first!

Last week I was up on the roof cutting branches off the Oak tree at the corner of the house so the little prick can't use it as a possum highway.
