Thanks George and Katie Saylor for the invite to Idaho and a program in the Lutheran Church in Coeur d'Alene, a quick 3.25 hour drive with jazz on the stereo and birds in the car. We packed the bird devotees in there, and I counted 150 plus with kids in the isles and latecomers watching through windows from the front lobby. That's Sibley on her perch in the center of the photo with a little halo around her... After a Powerpoint, everyone met Alisa (perfect Red-tail) then Owen the owl who started calling for his first time for an audience. I motioned to the stained glass as his inspiration for the operatic debut. Then Sibley showed off, and finally Jillian the Great Horned Owl inspired everyone to join in for a group HOOT. Thanks, new friends, and sorry I couldn't make the fishing trip Doug, as we needed to get back home. We're on Pea Green Boat on the Montana Public Radio Fund Drive tomorrow, check it out!
