in the fridge -
two tortoises
hibernate
Fred and Mr Murdoch the Gorgie City Farm tortoises are put in a fridge every year to allow them an uninterrupted hibernation. Somehow I think this year they may have been okay out in a farm outbuilding... Fred and Mr Murdoch are just two of the animals available to sponsor at Gorgie City Farm. Yesterday I asked, which animal are we going to sponsor at the farm. Diana from Qi Papers guessed a rabbit, but can anyone guess which rabbit?
Sugar (the little black one)
Daisy (the little grey one)
Driftwood (the lolloping lop)
Louie (the one with the magnificent ears)
Lily (the grumpy one, in this photo with Louie)
That's funny that they put them in a fridge.
ReplyDeleteWhich rabbit? You ask the hard questions CGP. Let's see I'm guessing NOT LIly because she didn't even get a picture. That leaves 4....underdog bun vs popular type bun (Sugar or Driftwood vs Daisy or Louie) hmmm. I'm going with Louie because he has ears like my very wonderful Bandit. Of course any bun is a good bun and I look forward to meeting your new lagomorph.
ReplyDeleteDiana - Lily does appear with one of the other buns in their photo, I should make a link for her.
ReplyDeleteI am going to sponsor Lily because my sister once had a cat (Eric) who she reminds me of and I was known for a while as his 'Aunty Lil'. Anyways, I guess that you are not going to sponsor her.
ReplyDeleteHmmmm, now that my criteria system has been changed, I'm just not sure....wait there's someone who says they are sponsoring Lily...I wait breathlessly to know the lucky bun.....I still guess Louie and add on Driftwood.
ReplyDeleteI love the poem. I acquired a box turtle in May and she started slowing down in September I agonized about whether to hibernate her but the advice was not to hibernate a new turtle because you can't be sure about their health status. Next year I may have a boxie in the fridge myself.
ReplyDeleteIt's 38 degrees hot here at 9.00 am. How I wish I was one of those turtles.
ReplyDeleteReally? -- the fridge? Learn something new every day.
ReplyDeletexo
my guess is Driftwood
ReplyDeleteI never heard about the fridge thing, lol! Can you imagine the look on some unknowing person's face when he opens the fridge and is greeted by hibernating tortoises?? Hee hee!!
ReplyDeleteI don't know which bun to pick! Everybun is wonderful! I'll just wait for you to reveal the answer :)
