Domestic Pets aren't our thing but we do love the native animals who make their homes with us.

Above is Milly our Water Dragon who on top of our old Tram seat trying to get my attention through the window... she loves Blueberries...  we haven't seen her for a couple of years now, we have seen some others though.

 Mandy our Kookaburra who still visits regularly.

 

And Billy Blunt our Blue Tongue Lizard.

P.S. Our 'Pets' are named after one of my favourite childhood books... Milly Molly Mandy!

Milly - Water Dragon, Molly - Dog next door,  Mandy - Kookaburra and best friend Billy Blunt - MMM Friend.

Milly came knocking for her Blueberries this morning, Mandy was nearby but by the time I found something for her she'd flown away.

Milly does enjoy a swim but most of the time she just clings to the side of the pool like this!

We've had many visits from these two friends of ours lately... so lovely to see them!

 A little bit of bacon is just what Mandy loves.


 Milly on the other hand prefers Blueberries.

What a delight... I've been so so so busy this morning...

 MANDY... came to say hello, I haven't seen Mandy for months and months so it was really good to have a bit of a chat, she has the softest most gentle voice and she bought her friend with her who didn't chat but stayed close.
 I dropped a few little bits of ham down on the lawn for the gang to enjoy... and...
... got this wonderful warm feeling which made me think of my beautiful Mama, my grandmother who had friendly Kookaburra's visiting regularly  :-)

Flash Back... Here's Mandy, the first time we met on 29th November 2016, she was just a little baby who must have fallen out of her nest and unable to fly so with some help from Wires we rescued her.

As soon as Milly saw the attention I was giving to Mandy... she popped out of the Pool to say Hello! 
Just spoke to Simon Marnie on ABC Radio who had a couple of Water Dragon experts with him, I told them about her arm and her shredding skin and was told to keep an eye on her but Water Dragons do fight with other creatures so Milly may have been in a fight.  I will get in touch with Wires I think.

Very worried about our Milly, she's lost the use of her right arm and is spending many hours just clinging to the wall of the pool???

How did this happen Milly you beautiful little one...

It's so beautiful to be welcomed home by our dear friends...

 Mr King gave me the call... all I had was a bit of dry biscuit to share, he had a taste then called his friend Queenie to come and enjoy...
 Which she did...
 Mr King watched close by...
 Then he checked me out before checking that Milly our Water Dragon was happy with her Blueberry...
Which she indeed was... three Blueberries in fact.
We really enjoyed our time in Macau but what a joy it is to be home with our friends  :-)

We had a visit from Mandy last week and just now Milly came to say Hello! It must be the warming up weather.

 This is the first sighting of our dear Milly since Winter, gosh she looks well after her long hibernation.

 Mandy was here last week for a chat a titbit of bacon...  Wow look how the Wisteria has flowered in that one week.

Haven't heard Molly barking from next door today, but I know she's still there.

Mandy came for a visit this week.


There she is with Mum behind, look at the beautiful blue on her wing.  Mandy only has to make one short sound and I'm her's!

 Mandy and Mum stayed for ages and didn't fly off till I had been inside a while, I was watching though :-)

Milly is never far away, David fed her a couple of grapes while I was attending to Mandy  :-)

Been busy around here, some visitors, lots of hours of no electricty and dentist!

 Mandy came for a visit last week, so delightful she is.   I was backing my car out early one morning when I spotted her... just sitting on the fence watching my every move.  I grabbed my phone to take these photos which isn't a good camera ... but here she is!
 She was still there as I drove away.

 Milly is getting very cunning,  I sit on the other side of this window while eating my breakfast... so to get my attention and hopefully get a couple of Blueberries she climbed up to the top of this old Tram seat to look at me eye to eye...  how could I resist eh!
 Very happy she was with her blueberries, isn't she beautiful!

Remy came to stay for a couple of days and we got out the Lego!  Boy do we have a lot of Lego!!  Great to put these flat pieces out on the kitchen bench instead of on the floor... and doesn't he just love it.

Wednesday we had no power for 7 hours while a delightful electrician changed our asbestos meter  board for a clean one in readiness for a new Solar meter.   Jack, real name Hui, was very patient answering Remy's questions  :-)

Thursday I had a long Dentist appointment... :-(  and David took Remy for a lovely long walk.
 Remy loves to borrow my Babushka Back Pack  :-)
Snack time for two Bush Walkers.

Then on Friday we lost power for 4 or 5 hours because of a lightening strike that blew up our Modem!

Saturday I spent most of the day at the Pub with my Quilting friends while David was at the Bus Museum...  then on Saturday afternoon we had hail, great big enormous hail!   No damage though thankfully.
T'was a lovely busy week.
