I drove to the river this morning and came upon the unusual sight of a possum during daylight hours. He was clearly struggling and my heart broke as I watched him dying.
I drove over to the city yard and chased down James, one of the city workers. He connected with Chris, our local Animal Control Officer at the humane society/animal shelter who came by and gave possum its final care.
Not a great way to start my day but I'm so grateful to James and Chris for helping the little guy to his rest.

A river mourning
Daylight struggle, nighttime woe
Life passes onward
