Rescue Phones

[den]

Once again I am on rescue phones. Today's calls:

1) 2m long eastern brown snake sunning herself on the caller's back steps

2) injured galah

3) Bees.

"Are they native bees?" I asked

"Er. I don't know. They look like the sort that sting," she said.

Non-native bees, then. I gave her the phone numbers of all the local bee keepers and wished her good luck. Native bees are small, black and stingless, so raiding the nest is easy.

It is that kind of place.
