I picked up my little girl today.If you are from this area & are interested in raising these beautiful creatures,go talk to Sherry Tenney at her website,Tenneysangoras.She is so helpful & you will love her.
Anyhow,I was going to name her Smoke,since the german angora is Cloud,but I have been reading alot of Lisa Gardener novels lately{this is my rant,having to drive so many people around I have read almost every book she`s written-that`s on the up end of the rant} & the one I have now reading there is a character named Dori in it & this bunny looks like a Dori to me.She is an English/German angora mix,hence hybrid.She will have lovely wool when she gets older.I just love her.She is checking out her new home,standing up sniffing everything.
I also went & got the wool,the hubby went with me this time,& was glad I did as this week the wool people were coming around to get their wool & take it to a wool pool.I don`t know exactly what that means,just that it`s an auction involving wool from sheep that are not handspinning fleece,I guess.I didn`t pay for it,they said to wait to see how much it goes for a pound.The dh helped sort 1 bag for me,but this bag wasn`t very good,had alot to throw out,I didn`t even want to waste the time washing it for stuffing dolls,it had soooo much hay & thistle pieces in it,it was not worth the time.Some was alright,you can see the difference in it.
I totally missed world bird Wed.,I was so much on the go yesterday I wasn`t even sure what day it was.But here are some pics of what I saw when I was home.This chipmunk is taking lessons from the one eyed squirrel on how to leap from the handrail to the bird feeder.He did not make it.
