Same here. Ours is a rescue too, along with her black brofur. I had no idea that "tortitude" was an actual thing before getting her. Totally rules the house & our hearts. I love seeing all the different coat colours & patterns on them too. 🐾❤️

🪶 It's morning bath time for the Rainbow Lorikeets. They have 3 birdbaths in different locations, but this one under a lemon tree remains the favourite. 👇 #Birds #Parrots #AustralianWildlife

🪶 Sound up for this one -Mr Magpie makes the most incredible range of vocalisations! We've even heard him do a wolf whistle. Sometimes there are imitations of other birds. (The constant background "peep peep" is a baby Noisy Miner.) #Birds #AustralianWildlife #Magpies #Nature

Appointing people to cushy & unnecessary jobs! Further wasting taxpayer funds. 👇

Before we bought a proper birdbath for the front garden, we used to put out drip trays from the pot plants & fill those with water for the birds. Local wildlife use them for a drink too. It doesn't have to be fancy or $$ to give animals water. The magpie family loved it. #Wildlife #Gardening #Birds

🪶🌱 The weather has been really warming up & it's time to get all the birdbaths on repeat refill! Clean water is so important for them here as rapid urban development has removed or ruined many of their natural sources. #Gardening #Birds #Environment #Wildlife

I love it! First saw it when I was really over the Christmas commercialisation & family cr@p a few years ago, found the perfect matching coffee mug! 😂

Oh Diane I've only just caught up with this. I'm so terribly sorry. It shatters you. I still get upset about going through this with 2 of mine several years ago. They're family. Sending you the biggest hug. 🫂🌹

🪶 2 Little Corellas & a female Sulphur Crested Cockatoo Cockatoo on the verandah rail. Love the way Cockie climbs awkwardly down to the ledge below where the Rainbow Lorikeets are when it could easily fly down! 😂 #Birds #AustralianWildlife #Parrots

"No meowmy, we not beez scheming, just beez innocently sittingz here". Hmmm, 🤔 planning rainy Caturday mischief more likely! #Caturday #Cats #Tortitude
Two cats, a black one sitting just outside an open verandah door & a tortoiseshell one sitting just inside. They look guilty, as if they were planning mischief.

🌱 I just had to rescue & buy this little pink Buddleia (Hot Raspberry) - it was in a bone dry, way too tiny pot, drooping. Gave it a big drink as soon as I get it home & planted it out that afternoon. This morning it looks so upright & happy! #Gardening

🪶 Mrs Magpie is looking in good condition now, which is a relief. She is raising her second brood of this season & it takes a toll on the parents, feeding 2 families at the same time. #AustralianWildlife #Birds #Magpies

🪶 Poor Mr Magpie must get tired of the continual noise his teenager makes wanting food. Its older teen sibling is off happily foraging for itself. This one still wants dad to feed him. #Birds #AustralianWildlife #Magpies

You can tell where the creek runs by the line of mist rising along it in the valley. Very pretty any time, but more so with a sunrise sky. #Sunrise #Nature
