Day 5 and it's getting a little smoother

The whole operation is going smoother today. Everyone is fine tuning their job and responsibilities. Only one eagle has a puncture wound. I would have expected more. It'll be OK in time, but the wound will be monitored closely for infection and so forth.

We're doing some more spot washing today. Shannon is an Alaska Zoo employee who volunteered at Bird TLC years back. She's also a great supporter of TLC.

The kitchen crew is cooking. I had to say that. They had all of the meals prepped and all of the dishes and equipment spotless.

For all that we have going on, the volunteer crew is doing AWESOME! I've said it in the past and I'll say it again, TLC has some AWESOME volunteers.

Cindy left this afternoon for a verterinary conference in Orlando. She had been planning on going for quite a while. She worked right up to the last minute before heading to the airport. I hope she gets some good rest down there.

All of the birds are improving.

I've added a slideshow on the sideboard. Click on it to enlarge it and go to my Picasa public gallery. It hasn't been edited for content so it might have some boring pix's and some not to pretty pix's.
