[QUOTE="BF Hammer, post: 826908, member: 48483"] A small story, could be in progress. I watched a TV news story last week prior to Thanksgiving of a peregrine falcon that had spent the past 2 months being rehabilitated in a special pen and was released into the wild at a local Audubon Society bird sanctuary. Easy drive to try to photograph. I had it in mind to follow-up on that idea after deer hunt was over. So flash-forward to today I am driving from a job during work. I am on a highway less than 20 miles west of that place where the falcon was released. I see an unmistakable peregrine falcon flying across the road ahead. What do you suppose are the odds of that falcon (new to the neighborhood, mind you) wandered that way over the past week? There are other falcons around, but not nearly the same numbers as red-tail hawk or bald eagles, locally. Of course, no Nikon, no spare time either. [/QUOTE]
