This is a blog about our experiences as relatively new wildlife carers. It's not a reference guide on how to look after animals, there's too much left unwritten in our posts for that and we don't always get it right.
Remember, wild animals belong in the wild, they don't belong to us!

What're you lookin at?

We dropped in to see Natasja, our co-ordinator today. She had a couple of young ringtails for us as company for Rufus, now that Rusty is gone.

The last time we were there she had two tawny frogmouths, so I just had to photograph them this time.





Both the pictures are of the same bird. The feathers on them are so soft, and with those big expresive eyes you can't help wanting to give them a big hug.

Mogwai, the brushtail has reached the stage where wheels are in motion for him to move one. He's getting big enough and old enough to be released, so he'll be moved soon to another carer where he can be soft released.

It'll be sad to see the little guy go, we've had him since he was small enough to fit in one hand.

The snake and blue tongue both left us today. They've gone back to Jess now she's moved into another house. I didn't write much about them in this blog, mainly because they didn't really do much.

I'll post some pictures of the new ringtails, Linus and Lucy, next time I write.
