A Year with the Ladies

One year ago today we brought Virga and Cirrus home with us. They had spent their first seven years with another family, and when the family could no longer give them the attention they needed they decided it would be best to rehome the gliders. We were fortunate to be the ones to adopt them.

It took four months before we were able to successfully introduce them to Foehn and CB, but it was worth the work and wait. All four gliders have been living together since then, and other than a few spats from time to time get along well. The "merger" was good for all four, but I think Virga and Cirrus benefited the most. They became more relaxed and definitely more sociable with us. They are two pretty happy gliders.
