Nat and her hat, a naughty bug, baby's back

 Bugsley came over to hang out, he is  the oldest of the spider children and thinks he is the boss of the world. He ran away with Nat's hat! "OH my goodness!" cried  a most exasperated Bear.
 

Mother spider, returned the hat and apologized for the misdeeds of Bugsley, as she is quite used to doing, .

 Nat and Bear are glad. Bear SO glad that he immediately stood on his head, which he is prone to do when over joyed, even though it does make his tummy growl.

 

 

 Nat squealed and said "I can do that!" And so, they stood on their heads until they felt  hungry.

 Bear growled,  "I love you , Nat." and Nat whispered, " I love you, Bear". They then disappeared into the kitchen  for a nosh. They  found  raisins , dropped  by Bugsley , who told them that it was rabbit poo.  Nat and Bear ate them  all and laughed and laughed, and said "yum-yum, we love to eat poo, won't Bugsley be surprised."

On the morning deck ( I wish I could foster  a bit of  optimism, I lean to the dark side) pretty sure that the baby had died, and what do you know- there she is, looking  mighty  rough and skinny but eating and drinking and splashing in the cake pan. Her vision is  compromised , her ears are tattered, and you can see - she is pretty messed up. Baby's back! I wish I could  take better  care of her. Trapping her would be too scary and stressful for her so, I am putting all of my chips on mother nature. Fingers crossed.

These two are Mr. and Mrs. Bhang. They bully everyone rudely and loudly. When I show them my broom, they scoot, looking over shoulder all  attitude and squawks, marching about seven inches, turning right around to come back, insisting that Raccoon and Squirrel and Peg get lost. They like each other very much, which is a  good thing. They have no other friends.  

Stay well, especially if you live in Texas or Mississippi, The governors  there are nutso , trying to  kill their constituents  and use it against immigrants and Biden's humane policy. Republican asswipes. WHATCHAONNADO???

------"While they were busy eating treats and lounging against the barrier of their enclosure, the San Diego Zoo’s orangutans and bonobos, one by one, became the first great apes to get COVID-19 vaccines. 

The vaccine isn’t from Moderna, Pfizer, or Johnson & Johnson—it’s an experimental vaccine developed by the veterinary pharmaceutical company Zoetis for dogs and other animals. (I repeat: the apes did not take anyone’s place in line!) 

After the San Diego Zoo Safari Park’s troop of gorillas caught the coronavirus in January, their caretakers were willing to take a risk. Winston, the silverback gorilla, had developed heart disease and pneumonia. Non-human primates, it turns out, can get really sick from COVID-19, and the zoo needed to protect its other apes." -------( this from Nat. Geo)
