Ava T-B He is doing well although he
has a deformed right foot which causes
him to limp. He was one of our two males
last year. With his bad foot, it was rather
a surprise to see him back this year!
Now we are awaiting emergence of babies
from the natal burrow. That should be
sometime in mid to late May.
