The hot weather proved too much for one young ringtail possum. It dropped from the Linden at the feet of some guests this morning. They gathered it up away from the ants and I delivered it to the Wentworth Falls Vets. They will check it over and then release it to WIRES who will look after it until ready for releasing back here. We think it is probably dehydrated and hope the drop to the ground didn’t do it any damage.
The heat does not worry the blue tongue lizards, this one was heading away from the mower. The kookaburra is probably on the lookout for any sort of lizard, there are little skinks about too.
And last but not least Billy the dog among the Weeping grass Microlaena stipoides with the pink flowering Blueberry Ash Elaeocarpus reticulatus flowering behind him.
