More Distractions

How cute are these!!!!
I know there are lots of folks out there that love owls, so thought I'd share these, even though they are not owls but Tawny Frogmouth chicks.

The Best Laid Plans. . . .

It would appear that all the diversion and distraction stars have aligned against me the last few weeks.

The knitted jumper I am making for newly arrived Isaac is half finished. The renovations my husband and I are doing have become more complicated and time consuming. A website I maintain has had major problems requiring a complete reload of the files and is not resolved yet and just to make life even more interesting the long dry spell is having a major effect on local wildlife. Koalas are roaming looking for better leaf and being hit by cars and attacked by dogs - rescued 3 in the last 2 weeks. Possums joeys are coming thick and fast and kangaroos are searching for grass by the road side with deadly consequences and to top it all off we have bush fires!

This is a little peek at a wallaby joey snug in this warm pouch waiting collection by his new mum.

UPDATE  Little wallaby has been collected by his new mum - even though she is a he (one of our very few male wildlife rehabilitators)

 

Raining Frogs!

Lorelei has a great giveaway on her blog to celebrate the forthcoming book Enchanted Adornments by Cynthia Thornton, of Green Girl Studios.
Frogs!
Just love frogs - used to raise them from eggs to release as a little girl. Kept them in a huge glass tank next to my bed, (along with the caterpillars and beetles and all manner of other creepy-crawlies)

HOP on over for a chance to win!
