I currently have to wear a human fixator and am thus encouraged to read about this beautiful bird who is now back in the wild (doing whatever it is that birds like this do)! Go HOOTIE! Well done Norm! Hootie’s my hero!

I took my video camera and shot video of his return to his world. I mostly noticed his perfect lift off and graceful return to full flight. I had become quite attached to this bird and was glad he never looked back but more glad that he flew so well. I took great pride and relief in that. I am confident he had the flight skills to survive and prosper. I will never forget the way he could look right into my soul. Thank you for your comments my friend.

I enjoy them so much. Keep them coming. I think of "Hootie" often and I hope he is back in the wild. Dale Walker Norm, Great posting. I enjoy them so much. Keep them coming.

He would like to know how his little friend, the squirrel (and his siblings) , is/are doing. Thank you and Melody so much for the time you spent with us last month.

Reading your stories always uplifts my day and gives me a dose of education as well. I learn about animals I have no contact with. I hope "Hootie" continues to improve and will be able to return "home" soon. Love you guys and, as always, tell Melody I said hello. Helen Hello, Norm,
