Seven goslings were hatched earlier this week, causing quite a stir with visitors and Day Workers. Then in contrast to their lively noisiness, Paul acquired two old lady tortoises – Ivy and Sparky who didn’t seem to need any settling in to their new home. Josh and Richard, our Day Workers have been assigned tortoise monitors on Wednesdays and Thursdays.
Spring is officially here! We woke up this morning to find our first lamb had entered the world and as we watched from a distance we saw the second one arrive. What a magical moment and how lovely to see the ewe’s mothering instincts kicking in straight away. Within five minutes it was wobbling around on its little legs trying to find its first meal.
