Wow, Michael. You're really pushing the limits of discernibility here : )

Sorry Harvey, I hope this cropped image makes it a bit easier

Ah - yes. That makes it much more obvious. Definitely a male Slender Ringtail. Wasn't meaning to be critical or looking for an apology, just that at the resolution available I was only just able to see enough to make an ID and much of that was based more on jizz (impression) rather than actually visible diagnostic features.
