600 million jabs will be enough to vaccinate 300 Americans…

Valentina update - we have eggs!

She has returned to the same nest to start another clutch.

Not much happening at the moment because she is just sitting - for now.

Heavy rain across Victoria

Holly update -

Feeling much better after her Cortisone jab last Monday.

Above: Waiting for her favorite vet Doctor Tony to give her a jab - last Monday 25th.

Booked in next week for her regular check-up and hopefully can go back on the tablets which had to be stopped because of some issues coping with the change(s) to her renal diet.

What sort of plant is that?

Valentina is nesting in a Monstera deliciosa Liebm (Araceae) or Fruit-salad-plant.

Sprocket is going home

His mum (younger daughter) has arrived to pick him up.

He will be back for another stay at Meadowbrook Mansion this Easter - Seeya then mate.

Australia Day–visitors for BBQ

Those feet belong to visitors but Sprocket says not my problem this is my floor space.

Sprocket - snoozing on the balcony

Sprocket - snoozing on the balcony with us while we have our morning coffee.

Looks like a nice dream.

Doggies relaxing in the foyer

It’s been a very hot day! Doggies spent most of the day upstairs where the aircon has been running all day. Now relaxing in the foyer downstairs and it’s finally cooling down with windows and side door here (behind Holly) open - nice breeze now.

Everyone will sleep better tonight.

Feeding time for the doggies.

This is a Kodak moment where fussy Sprocket is actually eating with our doggies.

Followed the others into the kitchen did a nose scan of the area and liked the smell of chicken! I was a bit slow with the camera he's already polished off his chicken.

Sprocket as usual relaxing

Doggies - afternoon siesta

Doggies having afternoon siesta - peace for now.

Sprocket – assorted action photos

Sprocket - assorted action photos (LOL).

 

Update on spotted doves Valentina and the kids.

Mum and the (fledged) kids have definitely left the nest.

TO LET: Prime location, sheltered, solid foundations virtually storm proof with Westerly sunset views - food & water supplied (topped-up daily).

Valentina (spotted dove) and her babies - part 3

Empty nest!

But wait...as I left there was a flurry of wings and the little ones flew up onto the next-door garage roof. Are they just exploring will they be back?

Valentina (spotted dove) and her babies - part 2

Settling down for another night, growing fast so less room pick a spot and hang on

Valentina (spotted dove) and her babies - part 1

This year we have quite a few nests around the place. This one next to the carport is a bloody good spot where I usually park the bins which are now down the other end of the front porch.

 

.Just setup the Reject Shop $20 Wi-Fi camera on a microphone stand powered from a power bank. Bugger...missed the noon feeding session, what time do baby spotted doves have tea? To make shopping easier for mum I scatter bird seed, cracked maize and bread crumbs on the boot of my Camry Note: mum only shops for herself, the kids get mum's milk (pigeon milk).
