Hi Eve,

Thanks for keeping in touch. It is nice to hear from you. I miss all your great stories from the downtown falcons. Maybe we’ll see each other at the wrap-up or soon or at the very least, next year’s watch? You can get my email address from Anouk if you would like to keep in touch. That would be nice. Good birding!

Congratulations to Amelia and Billy on fledging successfully so far. Wonderful name choices, too!
Good luck to them, and to all the volunteers.

Eve

Just to clarify. The food “drop” was a headless pigeon and not a part of one. I believe it was the weight of the bird that caused Amelia to drop in height. She tried gamely to pluck it but obviously is not used to doing such chores. The subsequent dinner drop was a good size meal and not just a nasty bit of chewed over wing. Must say though that Amelia is a very fine flyer for only 5 days in.
