In this hot dry weather remember to put water out for wildlife. A shallow bowl on the floor in an open position is ideal. It mustn’t be too deep as birds and other animals can get trapped.
"Spending just 20 minutes near the ocean has been scientifically proven to significantly lower cortisol levels. Nature really is the ultimate therapy."

We have lift off! The first Pufflings are now leaving the Isle of May as birds are now independent. This is a big moment as they’ve never flown and not seen the sea before! Good luck :)
Brazil's President Bolsonaro has signed a new law that increases penalties for those who mistreat pets. Direct witness of the ratification: his dog. Now those who harm cats and dogs face 24 months in prison, a hefty fine and the absolute ban on adopting other animals.🐾
Sienna is out In the fields of Wales.
I took her on many walks here in Thailand when she was recovering and never saw this level of joy.
She knows she is home ❤️
Opossums are among the most unfairly maligned animals in North America. Their nocturnal habits, hissing, and toothy displays often lead people to view them as pests or threats. In reality, these quiet marsupials provide some of the most valuable services in urban and suburban ecosystems.
Contrary to popular belief, opossums very rarely carry or transmit rabies. Their lower body temperature makes it difficult for the virus to survive, making cases extremely uncommon.
They are also highly effective pest controllers. A single opossum can consume thousands of ticks per season, helping reduce the spread of dangerous tick-borne illnesses like Lyme disease. Beyond ticks, they act as nature’s sanitation workers, scavenging on carrion, insects, fallen fruit, and organic waste. This cleanup work helps limit bacteria and disease while keeping ecosystems balanced.
Their dramatic defensive displays, hissing, baring teeth, and even “playing dead” with a foul odor, are mostly bluffs designed to deter predators rather than signs of aggression.
Far from being a nuisance, opossums are beneficial neighbors quietly doing the dirty work that keeps our environment cleaner and healthier. The next time you spot one, there’s no need to fear or harm it, just let it continue its important nighttime duties.
