I moved Murray to a better location so I could take his picture without interference. You can clearly see the white button attached to the twig. He will be in this position for 14-18 hours before he sheds his skin … Continue reading
Murray the “J”
Well, glad I did not go to sleep! At about 1:15 am, Murray’s feet let go and he formed the J shape. The photo is still through the mesh but I will attempt to remove it in the morning and … Continue reading
