He may have though you needed some fresh supplies!      D)

Sometimes you may also find markings stamped under one of the wings.

The goats are always good for a photograph.  I think that these must have missed the last tram down!

If you are travelling up the Great Orme tonight look out for the idiot (me) trying to save the life of a flightless baby seagull by walking up the middle of the road just above Black Gate trying to get the traffic to avoid running it over. For the second time tonight I  eventually managed to get it into a box and put it half way up the grassy slope. Just to show their appreciation of my efforts, to save it's life, the mother and father and all the other seagulls thought I was a predator and swooped down and attacked me. Needless to say I also now have a box full of Seagull excrement.

Mother and baby seagull now re-united on the grassy slope. Bad news is they are now surrounded by a herd of the goats who are sniffing around it not quite sure what it is.

Goats have gone and now a local cat decided to take a look. Latest score Seagulls 1 Cat (running away after being swooped on) 0. How sad is it, that this appears to be my entertainment for the evening!

Whats the latest Medz?
It must have fallen out of the nest a little too early.

Do you think it will get through the night?

Will it make it to 'Ice Cream Stealing School'?

The Orme Vixen will probably snatch it during the hours of darkness.   She's a stealthy little creature!     L0L

A lot of shreaking (not sure if that's the right word) from outside at about 4am this morning. I fear, as Yorkie says, the foxes might have got it.

The little Vixen was licking her lips when she got home this morning and doesn't seem to want her usual breakfast!   Ah well!   The Law of the Jungle prevails.

Woke up this morning to find a young rabbit in the dining room.  One of the cats had brought it, apparently unharmed, through two cat flaps and wanted to play with it but the rabbit wasn't showing much enthusiasm.  Shut the cats in and carried the rabbit down the road and put it down near a gorse bush in the field.  After a moment it hopped away under the bush, so I hope it will survive a bit longer.

CSI agent Medz has just been to the scene of the potential crime to see if there is any evidence of fowl (sorry!) play. Nothing to be seen on the slopes.

The Vixen is a tidy eater and always cleans up after she has indulged herself! ZXZ
