art teacher Ms Savella and Robert Bateman, who awarded him top honours for his great horned owl painting in the Get to Know You Art Contest.
"My art teacher made me realize that by keeping my chin up I really can do
great things and meet great people. Mr. Bateman never gives up and keeps going strong at 80 years...and I
think we can all see how he is making a difference with his art now. I started learning species of waterfowl in the slough

Strathcona Raptor Shelter where I learned everything I know about
