  26. Dearest Margaret;
    Good Morning from Japan. While having breakfast we saw your wonderful picture and wondered what is the long thing under its neck. I checked with pc and goggled the picture page of Rhea. Got it!!! Its a long neck of the camel bird kind p;) BTW, "Rhea" sound same as 'rare' in Japanese. Thank you very much for the rare (Rhea) bird for me:-)

    Sending you Lots of Love and Hugs from Japan, xoxo Miyako*
