Rescuing 2 flying-foxes: Yoga and Victoria
It was the day of my Mum's big bash birthday party; the party to which my father accidentally (?) invited the entire village, the day where all these rescues in my territory popped in and nobody was available to go. There were 2 rescues really close to me, with the bats said to be on the ground; one was a microbat and the other was a flying-fox. When will I learn not to take the ID for granted? Rescue One, the microbat was actually an adult female Grey-Headed Flying-Fox. Her name is Yoga, because she was outside a yoga studio on a very busy road. I wasn't sure she'd survive the night but she's doing OK with the carer and will most likely go to the inside hospital aviary tomorrow. I can't tell if she will be a survivor longterm, however she is still alive thought quiet, 56 hours later. Rescue Two was a very unhappy subadult female Grey-Headed Flying-Fox who died before she got to the carer, which was a blessing. She was biting her wrists and thumbs with the pain from her brain injury and swelling. I have put up a warning screen before this rescue clip at the end of the vid (Victoria, from Victoria Park), so you don't have to view it if you're feeling fragile, but please watch the first clip which is happy. Also enjoy the bonus clip of the party with my nephs playing (the boys on saxophone (Nathan) and Trombone/Sousaphone (Jake) for my Mum's 91st birthday which went off really well. This is the 343 Band / 343brassband Tolga Bat Hospital takes donations for me. Tolga is an awesome place in Far North Queensland, which has charity status. By sending donations to them, they get a percentage (and deserve every cent) and they can allocate money to me for batty expenses without it becoming part of my income stream (which makes tax time difficult). https://tolgabathospital.org/donate/ Mention Megabattie or Meg in the PayPal message box and the money will find its way to me. If no message box appears, please email Jenny to tell her that the money is for me. IMPORTANT: If you pay through the PayPal Giving Fund, can you please email Jenny with the amount donated and the name under which you have donated, OR just forward along the PP receipt. The Giving Fund doesn’t charge any fees (so the bats get more money) but PP doesn’t itemise out the amount, they just send a total every month, and we don’t know if the money is for Tolga or for Megabattie. Here’s Jenny’s email. [email protected]
