Wildlife Wonderland


It's been all about the wildlife this week at Gaslight. Last Saturday we watched the rescue of a cat trapped in a tree across the road from the shop. The 3 hour rescue involved the fire brigade, a crane and several exciting maneuvers among the foliage. All this was watched by an ever increasing group of on-lookers before the cat was brought down to earth to cheers and applause of the crowd.

We had only just recovered from that excitement when a gentleman dropped into the shop yesterday to ask us if we knew there was a brown snake on our footpath. No!!! Bob quickly swept the timid critter into a crate and Steve took him out to the bush and released him.
