Our recently acquired ewe Tilly gave birth to twins on Sunday night. Unfortunately neither of them have survived. It was very early for us to be lambing and it was also a very cold night.

Unfortunately neither of them have survived. It was very early for us to be lambing and it was also a very cold night. A first for me. Never lost a lamb before. However, Tilly now has an enlarged udder which I am sure is not comfortable for her. I am looking for an orphan lamb or even one of twins who is not doing so well that we could put to her. I still have Tink, the wee girl who perished, and often if you rub the wool of the lost lamb on the orphan, the mother will accept it and allow it to suckle. Can collect the lamb if there is one out there somewhere.

"North Island saddleback/Tīeke (Philesturnus rufusater) at Bushy Park on 12 July. Not the best shot of a saddleback I've taken, but they can be tricky busy birds, continuously moving in the dark undergrowth, tossing over leaves and dark mysterious lumps looking for tasty ground grubs. They usually only take off into a tree like this when being chased by one of their contemporaries in a noisy altercation about turf. Bird #87 in 2022."

"I am small but mighty, full of excitement and curiosity for life. I am sure to make a great addition to a lucky household. My siblings and I have been fostered until we were big enough and old enough to find homes. We have been able to have a start in a home environment before coming back to SPCA for rehoming. As I am still young, I will need a home where I am not left alone for more than a few hours this is until I am older and settled into my new home. I am super social and love having a good play so I could go to a home with an existing gentle dog, or a confident cat. I still have a lot to learn so would love a home that has the time and patience to enroll me in puppy school, this is to help me become the best companion I know I can be."
