Happy birthday Claude! I’ve been going to the Academy of Sciences since I was pretty young and I still love to go and look forward to seeing you every time! Hope you stick around for many more years :)
Claude is turning 29 years young on September 15! We'll honor our favorite alligator with albinism with a smorgasbord of tasty treats (including fresh trout!) and a special birthday edition of Swamp Talk. Thanks for celebrating with us—Claude (and his team of attentive Academy biologists) really feel the love!
Birthday Boy Claude
Love, Téa

(whom...) Claude --
My hair is turning white and my eyesight isn't so good either, so we are in the same boat! You are younger than I at 27, though. Thank you for being at the Academy for my children and grandchildren - and for me!
Love from all the Millers
