Still Wild

Ah Seng was here again today, with a little team, to do a bit of repair work to our roof. The main purpose of this is to seal a hole that Noi thought some birds had been using to gain ingress in order to make a nest up there. Her suspicions had been roused by odd bits of twigs appearing on the patio, and they proved to be justified. The nest has now been cleared, leaving me feeling slightly guilty for dealing so ruthlessly with our little uninvited guests.

Noi also put me right on the gender of the leader of the musang (or musangs? - does it take this plural?) we encountered the other day. She reckons it was a mother leading out her family and I'm happy to bow to her superior reasoning on this.

Anyway, we'll be leaving our wild friends behind as we're setting off for Melaka soon. Mind you, we've seen wild pigs there, at the back of Mak's house, so with luck our wild encounters will continue.
