It's been a while since I have written, and I have never shared a project I have done. So, I'm back and I am sharing this cool project!
My inspiration came from a picture I saw on Pinterest, that rabbit hole of ideas where crafty people get lost for hours. You can check out my Pinterest boards here.

The Mexican gray wolf, Canis lupus baileyi, is the most endangered subspecies of gray wolf IN THE WORLD, and the most endangered mammal in the US.

I was very glad to see they are still here!

"Baby bird season" here in southern Arizona is March through September. It's a long breeding season, due to the warm climate. During the year, Fallen Feathers will take in over 1200 birds; the majority of them come in during these months.
Today I picked up a passel of passerines. House sparrows, to be specific. Six feathered, not-yet-fledglings, and 12 naked hatchlings.

Shortly after my birthday, I was walking home from work when I heard the distressed cries of a kitten. I tracked the sounds to a Dumpster™, and discovered the terrified kitten inside. The collection truck was down the street, so I knew I had to get the kitten out quickly; luckily, she wasn’t too far in, and I was able to scoop her out without Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22864272.post-68801427896746501232009-09-12T19:40:00.016-07:002014-02-12T08:01:30.198-07:00Awesome day at Fallen Feathers
Many of my friends know that I am disabled, having the chronic pain condition fibromyalgia (among a host of other medical issues). Many also know that I have been involved in wild bird rehabilitation for several years. There are days when the former is not so bad, and I am able to participate in the latter; yesterday was such a day, and what a great day it was!

If you know me, then you know that one of my quirky hobbies is “rescuing” and reuniting old photographs, postcards and letters that I find in antique shops with the nearest relative I can find. You can find my first post about the premiere effort here. My latest effort involves two letters and three photographs. This post is about one of those letters….
