There are a few flying foxes that visit trees next to the house and a rather cute unidentified marsupial that travels along the gutter.
Ian went out into the workshop the other night to check on the home brew and the girls ...only to find the cats staring up towards the roof at a 2 metre python (later named "Monty") . Monty had a pronounced " bulge" which restricted his ability to squeeze out under the roofing but eventually found a way to the outside. We haven't seen him since, but we're on the look out, and the door to the workshop is now firmly closed at all times.
We have been visiting the markets in the area, comparing and contrasting between them all. The Channon markets are quite good, with a mix of produce, plants, and homemade / handmade items of clothing, soaps, jewellery etc. Unfortunately they were cancelled this month due to bad weather. Each of the markets has their own kind of atmosphere, and as you would probably imagine, are all pretty laid back and have a type of hippy / children of the earth kind of undercurrent.
The Nimbin markets are always interesting to look around, and there is always a band playing and food stalls. This Sunday we were amused to see a local walking her pet goat along the street. Only in Nimbin.
The girls are settling in well...
