Kevin - in better times |
I have been meaning to post this for some time. In mid-January I was sad to find the remains of Kevin. I had not predicted his death. We attempted
to catch him in December for a health check but he simply glared at me from his
distant perch (barely within my reach) in a dead limb and refused to be
persuaded down. He always seemed to be in the thick of any action at the site so I’m guessing he simply
wore himself out. I will miss you my grumpy, stubborn friend.
The exciting news
though is that In January, Ruby had a jellybean joey in her pouch. By its size, I reckon it might just be Kevin’s.
Wally is also still with us. He is now in a tree near the gate from the paddock into the site. As much as I would like to get the accelerometer and GPS off his collar, we won't be catching him until he's in a much improved state.
