I've fallen and I can't get out!

We have an opossum in our compost bin. I found him this morning when I went to dump the coffee grounds and apple peels. He's a young fellow, and of course he/she played 'possum when I poked it. But it is alive and gave us a toothy grin a few times during the day. I think it might have gone in looking for food and not been able to climb out the steep walls of plastic. So I put a board in and I hope it climbs out tonight. If it's still there in the morning, I will have to consult with the local animal rescue group and see if I should bring it up there. I am hoping it wonders off. But it was a fun sight for all the kids to see. I'll go check on him again and see if there has been any progress.
