SHERI MYLER DAY 3

Sheri Myler, our student who is doing a series of placements with us over the next year or so is back for her second stint. Once again, I am putting her to work and she will be blogging each day about her time here...

This day was much the same as the previous one. Again I did not do the animal rounds and spent much of the day type-setting the Eberhart book. Today it was “K”, “L” and the beginning of “M”. This was the primary task of the day.

A healthy supplement to this was a drive out to the B&B of a family friend of the CFZ, to see their animals. These included a snowy owl, a harris hawk, three pregnant goats, various finches and two barn owls and two hedgehogs which were still asleep and, so, we didn’t really get to see them. We then stopped by one of the smallest and best maintained churches in the area to have a little look at the renovations.

The cat hunt was again fairly thrilling, though not as much so as the night before last. During a good lengthed drive, around some areas we hadn’t been before on the cat hunts, we saw two animals. We got a good view of a deer running away from us and a very good view of a badger which ran away at first, but then turned around to face us, before hopping out of sight, into the hedge.
