We decided to play football on the beach today. I was the referee, Scampi was in goal and Harry and Netty played against the seagulls. Netty kicked the ball to Harry and Harry tried to kick the ball into the goal, only Molly flapped her wing in Harry’s face. “Ouch” yelled Harry “Wing ball.” I blew my whistle and shouted. Harry then kicked the ball and scored a goal! Everyone… Read More »Football on the Beach

Dixie jumped right to it and tried to chase it away but she got stuck in the snail’s sticky, squelchy trail and couldn’t move! I had to think fast as… Read More »Super Sized Snail!

Netty and Harry danced their way onto the beach after taking their first ballet lesson. Netty was wearing a white tutu.  She showed us her pirouettes and attempted to get on her toes.  Scampi and the seagulls started to copy her, the gullies on their flippers and Scampi on his claws.  Stephen Seagull even said “We could be like the swans in swan lake” but Scampi replied “More like the… Read More »Ballet on the beach
