The Mischievous Opossum in the Apple Orchard

A fuzzy opossum perches high on a sturdy apple tree branch, munching an apple with chubby paws and bright, wide eyes. His long, curling tail wraps around the branch, and whiskers stick out as he nibbles. Below, the farmer stomps the grass in his boots, gripping a pitchfork with both hands. His brow wrinkles and he grits his teeth, staring up at the trickster in the tree.

Baskets of apples spill on the ground beneath the tree, while rows of apple trees stretch toward the cloudy sky in the background. The orchard feels alive with the busy opossum and the flustered farmer caught in a tug-of-war over tasty apples. Each detail, from the farmer’s big hat to the opossum’s tiny toes, makes the scene lively and full of energy.

Fun Fact!

Opossums play an important role in the ecosystem by eating insects, slugs, and carrion, acting as "nature's cleanup crew."
