    Thanks for the nice comments everyone! Isis is already getting lots of good comments at the show. A couple of ladies teared up when they read her story. She is a wonderful bird - I visit her as often as I can - the sanctuary is one of my favorite places - especially in winter. There are always other birds hanging out there looking for free handouts - great blue herons, night herons, egrets, wild pelicans and newly released ones from the sanctuary, etc. I typed up Isis’s story and put in a flyer for the sanctuary, so hopefully some folks at the show will go there. They are always in need of volunteers - that is where I recently attended the wild bird rescue class too.

    Beautiful portrait! You are very talented!

    I used to go to the Suncoast Seabird Sanctuary when I was growing up in St. Pete. They do a great job there!
