Clever Girl Rainbow !

By Charlie Phillips | 08/19/2012

Hi Everyone,

Well, it’s my pleasure to announce that our lovely Rainbow has has a beautiful new baby, born just over a week ago. I’ve been watching her carefully and this morning was my fourth photo encounter with them together, yesterday they were with a big group in Kessock and the previous few days they have been around at Chanonry.

You may remember that Rainbow and Moonlight had babies in 2010 but Rainbows last calf didn’t survive it’s first winter – very, very sad, but this happens now and again. I’m keeping my finger and toes crossed that all goes well with this gorgeous little bundle of fun. Keep up with Rainbow and her new baby with my Tweets on Twitter and on the Fanofadoptadolphin Facebook page.

Best Wishes,

Charlie.
