It is so cute. And so tiny. Australia has the most amazing creatures on the planet. I like the big possums, but the pygmy ones are so amazing. I would love the find a little creature like that anywhere.

What a lovely little creature, Catslave! I didn't know very much about these tiny Possums. They are so very tiny, and a bird box would be a great den for them.
