Yesterday morning, something alarmed Calypso. I have absolutely no idea what. He appeared to mostly be looking outside, but I could see no movement, and I don't think he'd be able to see hawks or anything like that, given the density of the trees in our backyard.
In any case, he did this for about 20 minutes and then all was well with the world again.
Warning: the audio on this video is irritating!

From 2007-2011 this blog was mainly about my animals with a bit of off-topic chatter. Then my husband shocked me by confessing to an affair. We've divorced. Life is better than ever!

Poor Calypso. My sugar gliders exhibit similar behavior and I feel bad that they get so upset. 99% of the time I can find no cause for their behavior. They'll suddenly run to a spot they consider safe, freeze their bodies, and then bark constantly as an alarm to their "colony".
