Sadly, in the ten days that I've been gone, there have been two deaths in town and so a couple of elderly Mums are no longer with us. Condolences to my friends at this time.
Also sadly .. remember the Tawny Frogmouth on the nest that I showed you a couple of weeks ago?
Well, the nest AND the Tawny are gone. Gentleman Jim, from the Seat of Knowledge, found a dead Tawny in the Lions Park last week and the next day when the boys checked the nest, the Tawny was gone and eggs were on the ground.
When one Tawny of a pair dies, the other will toss the eggs, knowing that he/she cannot raise them on their own.
On a happier note, I found two other nests today! I think I have an idea where there are another two nests as well .. and I will take photos of them all tomorrow. Unfortunately, none of them are at the perfect height in the trees for great photos of chicks, but they are there and that's what counts.
I have morning tea with the girls tomorrow morning and then Adoring Husband and I will be heading into town to shop and restock the pantry and fridge now that I'm back.
The final piece of good news for today is that I got the results for my Naturopathic Philosophy exam and I passed! 93.75% is a result worth celebrating! Wahoo!
My subjects for next term are 'Anatomy and Physiology 1' and 'Chemistry'.
Ugh!
I think I can handle it.
I'm confident.
Ha!
How difficult can it be?
No matter .. it's good to be home.
Nite all.
