How pretty....

Something about seeing a dead bird OR fish kinda makes me sad.

Oddly, I don't get worked up much over other animals.

It was alive when I Took that pic.
It just couldn't lift it's head.

I feel a lot more sympathy for any animal than I feel for people.

Is there anyone who could take care of Annie while youre not there?

She doesn't like people.

I don't really have any friends so can't leave her with anyone.

I do desperately need a new job, but this one will be very hard on her.

I don't think it heard of those either before today.
Poor little thing.

Yeah, usually placed by a mosquito or gnat as a very tiny egg and then it grows in the space it was placed in.

-And this is the main driving force of my thoughts. So many other animals that are never helped.
Also, as Sherlock pointed out about jiggers.... very terrible on the feet of those who wear no shoes....
Arrrgh - it gives me shivers!

There's lots of animals round work.
Nobody is supposed to feed them or try to pet them.

I'm always feeding them.

I tried to save a pheasant 2 days ago.
Saw it while I was at work.
It was likely hit by a vehicle, it managed to get itself a bit of distance and that's when I saw it.
I told my boss I was going over to it, and against his wishes brought it inside..
I felt it's heartbeat and it was extremely slow.
I tried warming it up and gave chest compressions, even mouth to mouth, unfortunately it died a bit later.

I will wear that medal proudly.

I have heard of bot flies.

Extremely glad we don't get any of the creatures mentioned in this post here.

As grateful as I am too. Although little nightmares like these often make me rethink my travel plans, I think the instances for picking up a friend like this are rare.

I'm thinking the same for Sunday.

I had to turn back last time due to snow and ice high up, but I've now got spikes for my boots so may give it a go again
