Hello Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret here!

First of all, I have got a correction to make, that duck yesterday was in fact a Wandering Whistling Duck!

If you have a look at the Slimbridge web site you can see them together with a load of other Whistling Ducks!

And you thought I was pulling your tail!

Well, today we could have done with some more ducks, it has been raining almost all day!

Every time we go out the rain is falling on us!

Let's hope that the weekend is dry, I mean, the weekend is for fun not sploshing around in puddles of water and mud unless you are that way inclined!

Early afternoon the carrier called and took away the pallet and stuff. Now Holly and I have room to dash about and the ferrets have lost a maze of places to hide!

Talking of ferrets, Old Two Legs gave the ferrets claws a trim today. All they need is a slurp of Ferretone and they don't mind having their claws trimmed. Now, both Holly and I just hate it and put up such a song and dance that the last time we got taken down to the vets to get it done!

I remember OTL had to hold us in a tight grip while the vet snipped away. I can see that soon OTL will try again and we will have some right old fun!

Mind you, OTL says that he will take the cost of claw clipping out of our treat allowance!

Now, tomorrow there is no manufacturing to be done and OTL says he would like to take his big camera out with him and have a play at some landscape photos.

Well, whatever turns you on!

See you tomorrow.

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

Snoozy Day!

 Hello Woofers!

Us again, Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

In the early morning dark, the rain came down, such was the ferocity it woke Old Two Legs up!

Mind you, he went back to sleep pretty quickly!

When OTL finally got dressed and was opening the front door the rain had stopped.

Mind you when we got to the football field it was exceedingly soggy! We tippy toed through mud and puddles while OTL just squelched across the field!

Surprisingly, it was rather warmer than yesterday and even the puddles seemed warm!

It was dark when we started off so we didn't take the camera with us and lunchtime it was so grey and dismal that we left the camera at home. I reckon we will have to time it properly so we get the red of the sunrise!

At last, OTL has finished all the manufacturing and now he has a wooden pallet full of stuff, all he has to do is wrap plastic sheet around it all and get the carrier to collect it tomorrow!

All this manufacturing looks like a lot of hard work to me.

This lockdown is proving to be rather boring; I mean, we would love to go down to coast or one of the country parks to do some bird watching. Holly and I used to enjoy doing some bird watching from the wooden hides, Holly is well into birdwatching and spends as much time looking out the back garden to see what birds are visiting the feeders. We have had some interesting visitors, like the Whistling Duck!

 Now, how many of you have seen the Whistling Quackers!

Mind you, it didn't hang about!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.
