West Perkins Pond's Life

       Though the pond was low, still, it was dry as a desert last year, and today it teems with life;

I saw turtles, birds, and crawfish all around it.

Cassandra Releases Barn Owls

        The feisty, eager to fly Barn owls lurched up from the crate when Cassandra lifted the top. They flew straight on runway heading, as if following FAA regulations, then turned together on course toward a setting sun. "But Penny," I said, "they are flying away from the barn." "Ah, they'll find it," she said.
         Barn owls raised and released back to nature by Wild Bird Rescue, Inc. Visit their FB page and their website. Volunteer your time to rescue orphaned or injured wild birds and then release them back to their natural habitats.
