Sardis or Sardes (Lydian: Sfard; Greek: Σάρδεις, Sardeis; Persian: سارد, Sārd) was an ancient city at the location of modern Sart in Turkey's Manisa Province. Sardis was the capital of the ancient kingdom of Lydia, one of the important cities of the Persian Empire, the seat of a proconsul under the Roman Empire, and the metropolis of the province Lydia in later Roman and Byzantine times. As one of the Seven churches of Asia, it was addressed by the author of the Book of Revelation in terms which seem to imply that its population was notoriously soft and fainthearted. Its importance was due, first to its military strength, secondly to its situation on an important highway leading from the interior to the Aegean coast, and thirdly to its commanding the wide and fertile plain of the Hermus.

This handsome barn owl has "glass bone syndrome", where all the bones in the wings are fused together. Raised by people who didn't provide the appropriate diet for calcium development in his body, he can't fly and has an underdeveloped body. Mote, however, has the biggest heart and is the official ambassador at Sardis Raptor Center in Ferndale, WA. He is afraid of the dark and sleeps with a night lite. He's also scared of mice and cats. Mote loves to play in water. In the wild, barn owls live 2-3 years. Mote is 16. He did get completely soaked later on, but he wasn't recognizable as an owl. He sat in front of the heater for an hour to dry himself off. When he's dry: whitneykrueger.typepad.com
