Mystic Aquarium

The day started out cloudy and foggy. Table Mountain, which is viewable to us every day from the parking lot, was completely hidden. Usually I would not approve of the weather but a cool cloudy day is very welcome.

The day at SANCCOB began at about 8am again. I worked in pen 1 with Lucy. Pen 1 still contains birds regrowing feathers and a few with what seems to be some chest congestion and on bit more special treatment to assist in regaining their health. Pen 1 is a very busy schedule.

While my husband got ready for work this morning, I was seven hours ahead of him in South Africa enjoying a sandwich at Cape Point with a fantastic view of ocean and mountains in front of me. Today was a day off from SANCCOB. I took in some of the sights since I have never been to South Africa before.

Today I worked as a floater. It was a really good day. I started out helping Margarite tube feed some chicks in pen 8. Following that, I helped Vanessa weigh and record weights in order to upgrade the birds to another pen. We were able to eliminate birds in pen 8 altogether.
