This lovely female Harris’ hawk is enjoying some quail on the glove. My glove. Kids went speeding by on tiny bikes and she didn’t even flinch. She is one cool bird.

These bunnies are growing fast!

Bluefin’s litter contains broken opal, opal, what looks like broken blue otter, as well as a couple of black otters.

If I had my way I’d keep a half dozen of these beauties. Right now I’m very tempted to keep the full castor kit as the Rex castor fur is exactly like a luxurious beaver pelt.
