Bilby now appears to be saying ‘Thank you’! She is still resisting signs for the most part (although, today she did appear to lick her hand at Puggle when saying good-night to him—like blowing him a kiss), but when she is given something she certainly speaks, with an intonation that is very similar to thank you…

The rest of the time she burbles… a lot… I guess there’ll be no worry about her not being heard:-)
