Owls, and More Owls

With the Hobbled Wife off for a weekend of winter fun near Goosesberry Falls, the kids and I made the best of it this frigid weekend. We tried to go bowling Saturday - but so did everyone else. Rather than waiting one hour or more for a lane, we proceeded south to Como Park for some indoor warmth in the Conservatory and a chance to say good bye (for now) to the polar bears at the Zoo. Neil and Buzz, the bears, are being moved while their new Polar Bear Odyssey is being built.

Sunday, the Dude and I attended a Raptor Center presentation, All About Owls. The presenter was Sharon Stiteler aka the Birdchick. It was a very well attended - standing room only - about 50 or more in attendance. The Dude, despite being one of 5 in attendance under the age of 12, was not the least bit shy, raising his hand and asking all sorts questions. He really knows his raptors.
