Wildlife Snuggery Crochet Hanging Basket

Meet Leilani a Possum in the care of Kinjarling Marsupial Rescue.  When this Snuggery was hung in her enclosure Leilani was quick to snuggle up in it and that is how these crochet hanging baskets came to be called a "Snuggery".

    Is the top one of the bird pooping? If so, I hope you weren't stood underneath it! The second shot is amazing. I love the positioning and how much sky you have left. #MySundayPhoto.

      Hahaha - yes, naughty bird! But a rare enough shot I had to share. Sorry if you were eating lunch or something. 0_o Glad you like the second shot. I think the term for that composition is rule of thirds.

      I nearly didn't! Hubby assured me it was quite acceptable for photography circles.

    Amazing photo, I thought is was a piece of sting attached at first not nature taking its course!

      It's quite artistic considering. I was not prepared to be getting aimed at. He missed me though *phew*

      I was a bit worried for a second. It wouldn't have done the camera any good. Lucky for me his aim was off.

    I couldn't tell if it was pooping, or had string attached! That is an amazing capture, I do love unusual pictures like this x

      We get a few different types of egrets here so we had to look pretty closely to figure out which type it was. The cattle egrets have some pretty colours going on. What a treat!

    Brilliant shots - even the first one! It almost looks like string trailing behind.

    I don't know much about photography, but this picture had to be a difficult shot. I love it! What kind of shutter speed would you use for this?

    1. Purfylle21 April 2015 at 08:25

      Hi R.C. The shutter speed is the number on the right under the photos. 1/2000 or two thousandths of a second.

    Whatever she'd been eating certainly had a purgative effect!

    What a great shot! I love that nature isn't always pristine - there are warts and accidents and poo!

      Too much poo if you ask me! (2 dogs, 2 cats, 3 birds and a fish will leave you feeling like a professional poo manager)

    I laughed hard when I realized what was going on on the first picture (and the comments are so funny too ;0). At first, I thought the bird what caught in some sort of wire.
