Zeus's new home

Squirrels are cute as babies, but they let you know they are wild animals very quickly! And, I can't really comment on your lack of creativity in naming one squeekers--I called the otter "otto"! I also had a baby screech owl called "Hooters" but that was way before the mens bar came out with that name!

Hahaha that's awesome. The only time I see owls is when we go camping in the summer and take a hike at night. We take flashlights of course but if we turn them off we sometimes find fox fire. I love nature and animals and I will always have them in my home, or at least live somewhere away from a crowded city. I enjoy having the fish in my room because I can watch them. I actually got to see one of my corys lay eggs a few days ago.

When I lived down South, I saw foxfire. wierd stuff! The locals called it swamp fire, or something close. I liked the South, so much nature and wildlife! And beaches and scuba diving...

[Kirrie]

We visit the beach every summer, but I don't think I would want to live there. I prefer the wooded areas in PA. There's lots of places to hike and camp, which I love the most. Kind of limits my college choices because I dont want to leave Pennsylvania haha

[lohachata]

i don't know kirrie....there are a lot of great schools in PA...

[Kirrie]

I hope so I plan to go for Forensic sciences

[lohachata]

[Kirrie]

Here as in Pennsylvania? I've lived in Pennsylvania since I was born and I dont ever plan on moving away.

[lohachata]

carnegie melon is in pigsburg...lol....i drove by there once...pretty awesome place...

I've decided what I want to do I just have to decide where. I haven't really found the time to look at specific colleges yet. Although I have been getting tons of mail from different colleges. It's actually more annoying than it is helpful at this point.

There is University of Washington Seattle and Tacoma. They are great schools here in Washington State. There is Washington State University, but I am not sure about it.

I also love nature and wild animals. I saw two eagles the other day by a creek near my apartment. It was really cool to see them because they are not normally out during the winter. We have had a mild to moderate winter.

A few years ago I found this site where you could watch a pair of Bald Eagles and their eggs through a webcam. I checked on it every day until the eggs hatched and the chicks left the nest. Since eagles pair for life and also stay in the same nest, they leave the webcam up so you can watch them every year but I've forgottent the website and can't seem to find the same one now. It was very neat to watch them take care of the chicks. I remember one night it was raining really hard and both parents stood over the chicks with their wings slightly raised to keep them out of the rain.
