Big Al says, “In the New Year, I’m going to keep my head above water and always have an eye out for a good opportunity.”
Tommy turtle says, ” My motto is, don’t hurry, be happy. Life isn’t a race. We all get there in the end.”
Mr GBH says, “I’m going to take some time out of each day to meditate and I refuse to stress about those things that I cannot control or change.”
Great Egret says, “When I choose to rise above the drama, the view is wonderful and the way forward becomes clearer.”
Woody wood stork says, “I always strive to have balance in my life. I stay calm and grounded whilst being totally focused on my goals.”
Grandpa Igasho is looking a bit dishevelled and rather concerned as he keeps a watch out for human predators from his safe perch high up in the trees. His New Year resolution is to always stay one step ahead of the opposition because you never know what their next move will be.
Last up but most important, Perry and Penny pelican say, “Whatever the question, always remember that love is the answer.”

How is Igasho?
Thanks, Lavinia. Igasho is still around but heβs way up in the trees along the side of our lake. I look for the splash of orange every morning and so far, so good. I think heβs very cautious of those Iguana Control guys, and with good reason. π³
Will always take time for a great photos and good vibes.
The day and the year are finally here, let’s see what happens now.
