Hi Narelle,
Loving your pics girl - you have some amazing stuff! Hope you are happy and healthy! It's is Jodie Clifford here and I am working on a project for the Canungra State School. We are promoting our Green Team projects and are after a picture of an owl as Canungra is the 'valley of the owls!' Let me know if you are interested in me using your picture on our brochures - of course we will acknowledge your input. All the best.
