Domenica

Domenica who was chased into the Quinta by Pica and the others on the 5th of April has had her spay operation last Saturday. Of coarse she has managed to pull her stitches and open the wound. We are sprinkling antibiotic and violeta on it - a real chore to keep from getting infected in this climate. Otherwise, she is doing just fine - not a single complaint.

Domenica is a "Siamese Calico" - there was no way we could refuse her.
I would like to thank her two Godmothers from Port Townsend - Lisa and Lyn - thank you very much!  




First rain of the 2009 season

Our first real rain rain, defined as enough to run off the roof, was Wedsnesday night. A little tropical disturbance has been off shore and to the south. We certainly will get some real rain from it tonight.
                                                     



Two years and two days ago....

Hmmmmmmm..... I see my last post was two years plus two days ago. That was about the little Pygmy Owl we called "Agibu" - Kinda eagle and owl in spanish put together, as we were unsure at first as to what he actually was. The long story short is that he rejoined his family in the tree and made appearences from time to time. I still hear him or his family from time to time - now that I know what they sound like. Beacause of size and evasiveness, they are hard to spot.

If I start to post again am I required to write all that has happened since then?

Nope, forget it. Guess ill just start writing things that happened or are happening on a more regular basis.

This guy was found in our courtyard June 15, 2007, healthy and uninjured. We figure he fell from the Wamuchl tree on the side, crossed the roof and fell into the courtyard. He was found by Isabel while sweeping. Some sort of miracle that he wasn't found first by one of the four cats, or two dogs who are hunting this place.

"Slide shows are for puppies" says Rudolph, after releasing his first video - "The Rudy Rudolph" today. He has appeared in Rayo Super Rayo's slideshows which are often , mistakingly, refered to as movies. Rudolphs ambition is to refine the Rudy Rudolph as a new fad dance. "Its all in how you move the front right paw", he candidly barked.

Anyway - View the Movie Here.
