A close up shot of a gorgeous Kookaburra feather Loree (family) sent
me from Australia. Unfortunately, the cockatoo feathers and the rainbow
lorikeet feathers were seized by US. Fish & Wildlife. Apparently,
they are classified as endangered species and can’t be mailed to the US
with a CITES license. Oops! I didn’t even think about them being
protected as we can have them as pets here in the US. I just hope it
doesn’t get Loree into any trouble. And I’m totally bummed they seized
the cockatoo feathers because she had a GORGEOUS, perfect wing feather
in there that was massive. It would be have soooooo pretty to put in a
frame and hang (which is what I’m planning to do with the other
feathers). But apparently kookaburra feathers are just fine, so
hopefully I get a few more of those.
I completely forgot that today is the International Polar Bear day.
All day I was thinking it was tomorrow. I swear, I barely know if I’m
coming or going these days. Needless to say, I did not get the altar
set up or do anything ritual yet. Maybe this weekend. ::chuckles::
Seems to be the story of my life.
I did get asked by Kayla (librarian) to help out on a project she’s
doing for the teens this summer – a live action choose your own
adventure thing centered around the Zombie Apocalypse. I will be
reaching out to my LARPer buddies and see if they have any ideas to
share. I should definitely ask Kayla when they are doing this (I know
it’s sometime late June), because I will certainly love to come help and
see how it plays out with the teens. My Practicum hours will be over
then – hell, I might even have my degree by that point. But I
definitely want to see how it all plays out in the end. And it is
certainly something that would be cool to add to my resume to really
make it stand out from the crowd.
