Current Goal

Rishon's goal is to fly like a bird ... or a turtle, exploring places that are amazing and unique, and perhaps stopping at each continent but Antarctica (he is afraid of penguins). He would love to spend time exploring countries in South America and Africa and rellay pictures and stories to his owner. If he ever gets home sick, he will try to return.

🙂 Traded Maxine TB for this one. My 2-year-old daughter keeps saying "tur-le!". Rishon is coming with us on the last leg of our trip back home to GA. Thanks for the TB! Will release him into the north GA mountains soon.
