A while ago I left the RSPCA and started looking for other jobs that focused more on wildlife. After about a month of no trabajo Robbie told me about a position at Billabong Sanctuary where he works! I went and interviewed on my birthday and a week later got the job as a Ranger! It's been really fun and even though it's been packed for the busy season, I still enjoy working with these wonderful animals. Here are some pics of some of my favourites:

Three week old red-tailed black cockatoo now being hand raised by my boss!
Some major improvements in my life as you can see! Not that what I was doing before wasn't any fun, just that I am better suited and qualified for this line of work. New things are always happening at Billabong and especially after Yasi many new enclosures and exhibits will be popping up! I have a new animal adventures everyday and will continue to update you as the fun continues!
