Can you spot the special YEP feature in this photo?
Hello friends and family
The start of the week was tee shirt weather, but the weather now  has and autumn feeling to it. This week we brought in 2 penguins and released 8. We now have 19 YEPs and 4 White flippereds in care. On Monday the local primary schools brought their years 7 & 8 students out for a visit. They are a bright bunch and interested in the lighthouse and the wild-life.

Seal family
It was my Top-tip day on Wednesday so I went to town in the afternoon. I had Maccers for lunch which was a bit of a treat. Wednesday was also special because we got notice that DOC will put $2000 towards our Malaria expenses. This is wonderful news and will supplement the $1000 from the Hampden Community Energy group.

Penguin love - moulting together
Michele and Charlie joined our Thursday working group and watered the ferns at the Moeraki colony. I was hoping that it would bring on the rain, but we only got 1 mm!

Stationary for the hunt
ON Saturday, after a frosty start, we collected our 100th YEP patient for the season. It has been such a tough year for the penguins. They would be decimated without our help and the season is not over yet!
Have a great week!
Rosalie
