Title: Downed bird in northeast Rochester Post by: Guru on 13-Aug-09, 12:37:30 AM Hi Guys. First post here and it is one of worry. On my way into the office Wednesday morning I fear I observed a downed falcon north of the corner of Hudson Ave and Clifford Ave near the old Holy Redeemer Church. I could not stop and when I had returned later, all evidence was gone. Are all our friends accounted for? I hope I was mistaken. A very lite colored breast and dark back.

In the quick pass-by, I thought falcon myself, but they can appear alike when traveling at speed and only with a glance. Larry O Title: Re: Downed bird in northeast Rochester Post by: Shaky on 13-Aug-09, 02:32:11 PM Congrats on your first post, Guru!
