The image is a close-up of a small animal, possibly a possum, sitting on a tree branch. The possum is facing the camera and its body is facing towards the right side of the image. It has a light brown fur coat with darker brown patches on its face and back. Its eyes are large and round, and its nose is pink. Its mouth is slightly open, as if it is looking directly at the camera. The tree branch is covered in green leaves, and the background is dark, suggesting that the photo was taken at night.
