a trapped duck and a dead chicken - all in one hour. Today I was looking after the horses of the old woman the second time. Her niece was in duty of the other animals. The age of the niece is 60+ and she has no experience with animals whatsoever. Instead she is afraid of them and so she was not able to free the bird which escaped accidentally. And the 2-year-old Kelpie shows no respect for her and was successfully chasing the chooks. He was chuffed to have killed a chicken which was laying between his paws. How will this goes on?

"...Weather conditions are so extreme that South Australia's power distributor cut electricity to some communities to prevent bushfires yesterday, and it has not ruled out doing the same again today...."
