Thank you all for all your suggestions – Junior will be named Dilli Darel. A mix of Indian with some Aboriginal and English thrown in. Thanks Alma ! Mum has been very attentive feeding him large lizards and frogs. She brings them to me first. Not quite sure why. Dilli Darel is growing by the day and is absolutely delightful to watch.

A few weeks ago we lost a male possum. He died while we were away in Melbourne. Not sure if there were possum wars and he lost. We were sad as he often joined us around dinner time. For a number of days now I have been wondering if other possums would come and take his place. Last night, C was asleep on the deck and right next to him was this lovely sight.

Young life is all around – its a joy to watch
