Do Ferrets Hibernate?

Hi Woofers!

Us again, Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Freddy and Eric de Ferret!

Now, you know we haven't taken the ferrets out for some time on account that it has been too wet, too cold, too dark and too snowy?

Well today Eric and Miss May asked if they could come out with us at the lunchtime walk?

Old Two Legs said that he would see what the weather was going to be at lunchtime and let them know.

Freddy and Wendy said that they would pass on the walk and instead stay in bed where it was warm and snugly!

This morning we were up early 'cos The Missus was off to one of her Master Classes and she always gets up early for that and of course, wakes everyone else up at the same time!

Down on the Sea Wall OTL was waiting for the sunrise but it really didn't happen, too much cloud!

Mr Sunshine is hiding behind the cloud!
Not exactly the best sunrise, but different!

OTL was using his 24-85mm lens that is given away with the camera when you buy it at the shop and it really is a bit of a 'Cheap' thing that doesn't perform like some of his other lenses.

He has decided to change it for tomorrow, but today, he will carry on using it, just to remind himself of what it performs like!

We spotted some Black Headed Gulls on the breakwater trying to look all threatening like.

Some hope!

Do you remember Alfred Hitchcock's The Birds?
 Lunchtime, good as his word, OTL woke Eric and May from their slumbers!

It was fun watching them enjoying the sniffs. Miss May was more enthusiastic than Eric, but that's not unusual!

I sniff Mouses and Shrew!
 It took a little while for Eric to join in the fun but by the time we had got to the mole hills he was well up for a Mole Hunt!

Miss May was digging like mad, the earth was flying all over the place and Eric was joining in the digging as well!

There is nothing so wonderful as digging for Moles!
Of course, by the time they had got near to the Mole Hole, the mole had disappeared back down the tunnel and was making his lunchtime snack of Worm on Toast!

We had a relaxing afternoon watching some TV and enjoying a big bowl of chicken, followed by a Teeth Cleaning Chew that went down a treat!

OTL plans to watch the England, France rugby match later so he will be jumping up and down!

See you all tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Freddy and Eric de Ferret!
