There's an owl in my bookcase.....

So, we are starting a new blog here at the Zoo.

It's kind of exciting.  We plan to do our Keeper Blog here, where we talk about various happenings around the Zoo- what the animals are doing, programs or exhibits we may be working on, or just our random thoughts about Zoo life.

We will try to make it a daily publishing; but just so you know, we can't guarantee that.  Just because of what our jobs entail we may not be in the office long enough to create a post for the day.  But you can expect to read entries from Clint, Lynsey and myself on a regular basis.

As to today's title- there really is an owl in my bookcase right now:  Radar; he's our program screech owl.  One of his enrichment activies is bringing him out of his enclosure and letting him hang out in the office with us.  He likes to sit on the bookcase on my desk and watch out the door.  If he sees anyone coming up the sidewalk, he gives out his little alarm call.  It's almost like having a living doorbell sitting just in front of my head.



That's probably it for the first post.  I've got to get back to some paper work that needs to get done....  We do hope you come visit the Zoo sometime soon.  We have a lot of things up our sleeves that we are very excited about.  Keep an eye here, and you may be among the first to learn what's new!

Thanks for your support!
