The Mouog that became a Rabbog

This was my introduction to the Bird and Flower Market

I visited the Bird and Flower Market yesterday. Bird Market is a misnomer as it sells much more than birds.  It was extremely congested with both stock and visitors and seeing the critters and getting decent photos was just about impossible. 

It had furry critters unseen in Australia plus lots of strange birds.  It even had a furry critter which changed its identity while I watched.  Those with limited space were not forgotten with a range of odd critters available for sale.

 

Here is theMouog with his mouse friends

Some neighbours. There were some very dark coloured squirrels too

Here he is with some rabbit friends. He was interested in them and they in him.

This critter which looks like it belongs in a kids toy cupboard was their upstairs neighbour

The rest of the birds were in small cages and impossible to photograph properly.   Apart from some hoopoes I think they were song birds

Tortoises came in a variety of sizes with the really small ones sharing with crabs.

This was the only spider I saw but its neighbours were very common as were some black beetles.

Coloured chickens

The bulk of the flower section was not nearly as congested nor as well patronised and I didn’t see anything I’ve never seen before.
