Brantly and I (Shantal) moved from Houston over three years ago to try our hand at running a B and B




As many of our guests know, we've been taking in quite a few rescue birds this past year. As the number of beaks have grown, so has the demand for items like fresh greens and tasty snacks (especially when it's minus 9 outside). We are so fortunate to have found a friend in Leslie Fay, owner and chef of Graham's Grille here in Taos. Not only does Graham's continue to offer fabulous fare to their human guests, they now have generously donated their scraps to the hens (and toms and roos and ganders) of the Cottonwood Inn. We are so happy to be able to give our birds something fresh and healthy to eat-- and something so different from the usual old scratch. Collecting and saving and storing leftovers for our birds is quite a commitment to make. We are so grateful that the folks at Graham's have given their time to helping out our hungry birds. Not only do the birds make out like bandits, but the local landfill benefits as well. If you're in town and hungry for the best green chili cheese burger or decadent dessert that Taos has to offer, don't drive by the Taos Plaza without paying Graham's Grille a visit. Here are a couple of photos of our birds enjoying their food-- Ms. Squawkers, Za Za and Wilhelmina have a bit of something green, and Wiccus, our Midget White tom with evidence of his snack still on his beak.

We've met so many interesting, cheap rates on motels in richmond va fun, and wonderful people that we really wanted a chance to share a bit more of our lives with them, and hopefully find a way to keep in touch. Many of our guests have LOVED our pets, and they are a big part of the Cottonwood cheap rates on motels in richmond va experience, as well as our lives. cheap rates on motels in richmond va So, please feel free to send pictures, comments, or anything else which comes to mind!
