Hello all! Fancy new place isn't it? Its been a bit of a journey to get here, but we've all packed our things today and moved into the new channel 🚚 📦 We have wonderful neighbors over at #daily-sudoku-discussion, and are really thrilled to be here! 🏡
Today's GAPP is called Moving Boxes and it's a standard Rectangle Slider puzzle! Help us get everything moved about by giving it a solve. (And no slacking, all hands on deck!)

Rules: Move some black squares (1x1's, and not necessarily all of them) so that each group of orthogonally adjacent squares is rectangular in shape, and no square is left isolated as a 1x1. A square may only move in one straight line vertically or horizontally. Squares’ paths may not cross each other, other squares, or other squares’ starting points. Squares containing clues must be moved exactly the indicated number of cells.
Fair number of rules, so perhaps worth a read over if you get stuck! And as usual we have an example in the image which may clear up any confusion ^^

Heavy lifters who can match or beat 1:00 get the coveted Speedy Sloth 🦥
Pulling your weight and solving in 3:30 or less gets you a Quick Crab 🦀
And to anyone who completes the puzzle at all, we offer a Homely House Wren 🐦

It's likely today we get a lot of new solvers, so if anyone is confused or wants a nudge it's always ok to ask for help!
It may be helpful to use puzz.link's auxilary marks on this to track what is or isn't moving. right click places an X and left click places an O 😄
