I thought he must have been an orphan. I can well imagine that the teaching was difficult, but uplifting and full of wonder. Thank you again, for trying so hard and for succeeding. You didn't tell me his name.
His name was...wait for it.....Whacka! because that was the sound his wings made when he was hanging around upside down and when they were flapping when he was trying to fly...! Whacka was my mate.
Oh, my goodness! How did you teach him, you aviation instructor you in the realm of flying foxes? What a thing to be able to put on your résumé! ! ! And thank you for teaching him! Was he an orphan flying fox? And brave little fox, for persevering and who knew that perseverance always wiins! What was his name?
He was an orphan. The teaching was difficult but uplifting and full of wonder...!
Lovely! And a blessed Christmas to you and a productive, prosperous 2019 too! How exciting about the flying fox!
Thank you so much Diana... May your Christmas be peaceful, beautiful and a joy. Had a pet flying fox a few years ago. They can't fly without being taught by their mum. So it was up to me to do the teaching. Poor thing crashed landed a fair bit under my instruction but perseverance payed off....!

Precious little Whacka! What an amazing experience it must have been to have even SEEN Whacka; to have saved his life by being a substitute mommy flying fox; to have had him as a mate and a child! I am grassgreen with envy!
