    Boyd Hill Nature Preserve is now one of my favorite places in St. Petersburg! This field trip was a nice break from the fast-paced urban lifestyle that I have been living since moving away from home. Our excursion began at the bird-of-prey aviary. There were several types of birds at the aviary: eastern screech owls, turkey vultures, barred owls, great horned owls, and a bald eagle, to name a few.

    In this metaphor, the owl is the wealthy, upper class, endlessly hungry for more money and being merciless and brutal to get it. The owls in the world seem to have no limit as to how low they will stoop to get their money or their kill and when they succeed their boastful shriek can be heard for miles around.
