Turtle Bay


Wow! Exciting news!! Vanessa is now working at Turtle Bay with me as a Wings of Summer Attendant! She has been working for two weeks now and as far as I can tell really likes the job.In fact, she and another coworker already hold the team record for selling the most feedsticks in a day. Congratulations!

Other news regarding Turtle Bay:
Mom and Dad now have an annual membership! So next time everyone visits we all get in for free! They really enjoyed visiting T.B. while Joe was out here.Mom doesn't look too sure about her little parakeet!
This cockatiel, Duchess (but we can't tell, maybe its a duke) really liked Dad.
And the cockatiel affectionately refered to as The Vulture because of her bare head, hit it off with Joe pretty quickly.
The Eastern Rosella's are one of our favorite birds in the aviary. They are so cute!
The butterflies are really beautiful in the Butterfly House right now too. This Julia is supposedly found in Florida, even down in the Keys, but I don't remember seeing it!
And of course the Giant Swallowtails always impress people because of their size. They always make me think of Michelle and breaking dishes though...:)
The Zebra Longwing is another of our prettiest butterflies.I had to include this picture of the star of the animal show Walk on the Wild Side, Stilts, TB's burrowing owl. He's a pretty cool little bird!And of course I had to include a picture of me. :)
