This morning, check the camera at the food bowl to see if he was around last night.

Umm.

( food bowl was pulled out and spilled earlier, its sitting there behind the raccoon )

Heh, I'm surprised that didn't happen to you sooner. Possums and raccoons (especially raccoons) will rob you blind.

Oh, they have been, but first time i have seen them together. 

This reminds me of a bumper sticker I once saw. It had a picture of a possum and said "True patriots brake for America's only native marsupial."

I even brake for bugs.. or at least try to avoid them.   ( like in spring when we get roads full of those little fuzzy rollypollys )
