Tuesday Treasures...

...comes around so quickly and it is always a highlight of my week, as I loving seeing what you have to share.


Today I want to celebrate the work of the Free the Bears Fund, started by Perth woman Mary Hutton in 1993.
An amazing group of people working, campaigning and succeeding in alleviating suffering  in our fellow creatures.


Beautiful Shell at Raspberry Rabbits has this on her blog


You can judge


and I agree whole-heartedly.
