User's notes

bright eyed, even tried a couple of times to catch moths that were flying in and out, then spent the next few minutes grooming, did a movie with all of this on. Photos not the best as didn't use a flash so as not to frighten the Possum. Curled up after several minutes so I left it in peace, until the next person came in. Seems to like it in there as have seen a number of people saying they have seen it.
