Rescuing the Grindylow; a flying-fox trapped in a pool enclosure.

The Grindylow is an adult female Grey-Headed Flying-Fox who was trapped in a glass swimming pool enclosure, which was lucky for her because the resident dogs would have gotten to her otherwise. When the MOP (member of public) found her she called for rescue. The Grindylow isn't a happy chappie, but she also doesn't seem to be injured in any major way. Let's wait and see how she goes but I'm feeling hopeful about her condition. A Grindylow is a kind of still-water mermaid who has tentacles below the waterline. Given this batty's rescue location and her grabbiness, and the still swimming pool water by the secluded bay water, it seemed to be a suitable location for a fairy of her ilk. Tolga Bat Hospital takes donations for our batties. Tolga is an awesome place in Far North Queensland, which has charity status. By sending donations to them, they get a percentage (and deserve every cent) and they can allocate money to me for batty expenses without it becoming part of my income stream (which makes tax time difficult). https://tolgabathospital.org/donate/ Mention Megabattie or Meg in the PayPal message box and the money will find its way to me. If no message box appears, please email Jenny to tell her that the money is for me. IMPORTANT: If you pay through the PayPal Giving Fund, can you please email Jenny with the AMOUNT DONATED and the name under which you have donated, OR just forward along the PP receipt. The Giving Fund doesn’t charge any fees (so the bats get more money) but PP doesn’t itemise out the amount, they just send a total every month, and we don’t know if the money is for Tolga or for Megabattie. Here’s Jenny’s email. [email protected]
