After his adventures in Greece and Turkey, Tomas made the long flight back to the United States, where he visited a 7th and 8th grade class at Gray Avenue School in Yuba City, California.  They loved meeting Tomas and are now working on their own project "Rusty takes flight" where they are sending Red Tailed Hawk drawings around the world as well!  Thank you for taking such good care of Tomas!

While visiting their class, Tomas was lucky enough to meet a Western Screech-owl named Otus.

Tomas even got to go on a class field trip to a place that takes care of injured animals near Chico, California

While on the field trip, he met a giant tortoise!

And a crazy lizard!
