Sad Note...
I am unhappy today, MINNIE died last night. I was going to get a photo of her to put with the post on the 26th but got busy and didn't get it done.
OH! I am also so sad about Minnie. I know you though it was an electrocution, but she didn't look immediately life threatened when I was over there on Thursday. I was hoping for the best. Sigh
Born in Downers Grove, IL, I moved to Cody in 1981 after living in Boulder, CO for many years. As I enjoyed the outdoors and spent many weeks up in Wyoming going on horsepacking trips with friends, I decided to move here. I started Ironside Bird Rescue in 1987 after finding an orphaned Starling baby that had fallen out of its nest near my house. One thing led to another and after all these years the facility now has many different sized mews and flight barns for the exercise of raptors so they will be strong enough for release. I live in a 130+ year old log cabin with a corgi mix dog, her mother, a purebread corgi, a couple cats and many birds in a free flight aviary attached to the house. I'm now retired from a "real job". Along with rehabbing birds, I spend a lot of hours volunteering at our local Buffalo Bill Historical Center in the graphics department.

ReplyDeleteThanks Anne for your thoughts, it makes losing MINNIE a bit easier.
