Day 2

First day at work.. It was great. It was only my self, 1 staff member and 2 other interns there because the other staff had the next two days off. The work day went fast because we had alot to get done. Unfortunetly, the tropical storm was moving through so we did it all in pouring down rain.  I looked like a hot mess . One of the assignments that we had was to do food prep so we watch jose (Staff) show us the proper way to do things and the amounts each bird gets.  Also got to see a training session with the ravens and crows. These birds are soooo smart but their current issue involves their new enclosures. They are not liking the Bird door attached to them. So Jose tried to get them more comfortable by feeding them around the door. They were way to scared to even come close. Another big project that we had was building a weathering tent for the Birds of Prey when the rest showed up.  The top part of this tent was sooo heavy and the rain didn't help at all. We ended up leaving the top part of the tent so we could do small repairs the next day when we returned.  On this day we also got to try a new resturant. Its called One podner. It was real southern cooking lol but it was good.  I praying the so called dallas 10 doesn't catch up with me lol. Good thing I am poor haha. After work the other interns and I decided that we are going to cook dinner for everyone.  So we all went back to our apartments and cleaned up so we could go shopping for supplies. While I was in the shower a huge tornado touched down two miles from our apartment. It was so big that it made the news and all my friends and family were texting me to see if I was okay. I swear I did not hear the alarms go off. I was so surprised because It could have been worse and closer to my place. My guardian angel was surely looking out for me that day. We finally got to the store and bought our stuff then returned back to the apartment.  We ended up having spaghetti, chicken, and a nice salad.  It really hit the spot after a long day at work.  It was really nice to sit back with a beer and socialize with the staff as well.  Finally hopped in to bed about 11pm. It was a great day.
