Dindy the Flynn's cook for many years holds the Bush Baby aloft with great jubilation!
The bush baby was in the tree behind my round house. They make and a lot of noise at night, kill large numbers of birds and this one even had the audacity to pull thatch off my house- bad idea.
Bush babies are nocturnal and have quite bat like features. It reminded me of a child's toy as I looked at it threw the sight on the rifle. Fergus held the spotlight and I sent the first shot off over the horizon - not my Fathers son when it comes to being a good shot! Furgus then offered me his shoulder to use as a rest and that did the job. The Bush Baby lifted his little arms to the heavens in slow motion for a maximum effect Hollywood style last breath before slumping off the branch and hitting every branch on the way down. Honestly some dying animals are such drama queens!
Fear not all yee eco tree huggers it was not pure blood sport as Dindy took it off to give to a friend presumably for a slap up meal!
