Busy busy...

Hiya :)

So I know it's been a while since I posted but to be fair I have had a very busy week. Firstly, Rosalie, the Golden Lion Tamarin that I'm doing my study on had twins ! They're unbelievably adorable and about as big as my index finger at the moment. She's taking them out into the woods and being a really good mum at the moment so we're hoping both them will do well :)

I know it's a bit of a shoddy picture but you can kind of see a little bump on her back and that's one of the babies :)

Then, just casually, I met one of the greatest men to have ever been on the planet. That's right, my idol and hero Sir David Attenborough came to Durrell to film the lion tamarins for a new series that comes out in october ( keep an eye out for it!) and while I didn't exactly get officially introduced or anything he was about 2 feet away from me and he smiled at me and said hi - gah!!!!!!!!!!!!!! dream. come. true. love. him. so. much!!!! Since the BBC were coming we've been flat out organising everything and making sure that the ranges and everything were up to scratch and ready to be filmed as well training the animals so they'd be comfortable being filmed and so they would come down to where the cameras could film with the best light/space for David/aesthetics.

Quintessential David Attenborough pose with Ian, one of the keepers.

And finally, next week ITV are coming to Durrell to film a sequence about the bat tunnel so we've had to be sprucing that up and making sure everything is ready for that ! All of our animals are proper little movie stars but gosh does it take a lot of work! 

And finally, I also had to go out and find a new appartment to live in cause I'm moving out soon - I'll be living in a proper flat-share like a real adult! woohoo! So yeah, a very exciting, very busy week :)
