And now for another update via my magical iphone…
It has been cyclonic here at the farm the past few days. Trees down everywhere, extensive flooding, wild winds…
There is still no power, but this morning the wind has died down and the sun is out although big black clouds are building up behind us.
All I can hear is the drone of insects and the whine of chainsaws as Ben and our neighbours tackle the downed trees, blocked roads and smashed or washed away fences. So much work to do.
Of course I am not out there helping. Instead I am resting on the veranda with our latest houseguests.
Microbats!
The poor things have been buffeted and bewildered by the maelstrom so they have taken up a cosy position above the bathroom until things get back to normal. I have counted 22 so far.
Our carpet snakes are sunning themselves on a dry bit of
concrete near the back door. The wallabies are feasting in my waterlogged vegetable garden.
Quite the guesthouse we have here. But don’t bother visiting yet. Unless you have a canoe or a helicopter…
Hi cutie ~ thank you for filling us in ~ surrounding you in love and light and know that you’re finding the positive in this amazing journey XOXOX
I know it’s hard to stay abreast of the Internet via mobile, so I wanted to let you know that I’ve nominated you for the Very Inspiring Blogger Award. In your spare time…
Glad you are safe, and able to stay connected to the cyber world. How sweet that you are looking after the wildlife, and with a gracious attitude as well. <3 I hope life gets back to normal for you soon!
Love and light, may all the inconveniences solve quickly!
So glad you are all safe there. And it warms the heart that you are welcoming the critters seeking sanctuary ( of course you are!).
I have connections … and the Jeep would hold strong 🙂 Hey, I recognise those spunky fairy lights! Miss you xoxo
Wow, that seems to be going around lately! Glad you’re all right – stay safe and dry!
P.S. I love bats. They’re so cute! I just found a teeny pseudoscorpion in my sink, and I love it too! 🙂
Glad you are okay and love the creatures!
Love the house guests! Love and dry weather is what in wishing for you. Xxxx
The bats are perfect guests. You might have a mosquito influx after the storm, if you have standing water. They will be in bat heaven, and you will get some natural insect control! Win-win!
Wow, I’m glad you’re okay. Sounds like quite the storm. You have an interesting mix of guests! Are carpet snakes harmless? The bats are sort of cute and I’m jealous you have wallabies! 😀
Good to see the sun is out. Hopefully it will dry things out quickly for you.
Oh my! Glad you are safe, if waterlogged. Mother Nature will have her way and there you are providing refuge for her creatures.
