additional critters



Bill has been mentioned in another blog http://sugarspicemice.blogspot.com/and now needs his picture posted. A greyhound (lurcher??) of distinction - he killed 5 bantams when he was a pup by playing with them but now appears to accept birds in the garden including the moorhen which still visits daily.

The news today is that the N5H1 virus has divided into two types. The cold spring seems to be delaying migrating birds from arriving but I guess it's still only a matter of time before it arrives and some action has to be taken. There are a few wild mallards on the fishing pond next door today but they keep themselves to themselves.

thats not a lurcher, thats a kangaroo. He may look cute, but don't trust him, he has a stare that can terrify in second. His understanding of personal space is a little unique also. But all that said, I do miss him.
