Cosmo makes a comeback

+ Cosmo makes a comeback
When wildlife rehabilitator Justin Matthews headed to Christ Presbyterian Church Feb. 9, he brought his longtime owl, Cosmo, for educational purposes, as he normally does.

But among the students for this presentation, was the girl who named him.

Bailey Melichar, now a freshman at Lakewood Ranch High, attended Freedom Elementary when Matthews rescued Cosmo in fall 2004. Matthews worked with the school, holding a contest to name the owl.
Bailey’s suggestion, Cosmo, won.
