Love the first falcon pic! Did you follow that truck all the way? 200 miles per hour? What I forgot to say is thank you for taking all those pictures of the surrounding buildings and area. It gives me a better idea of what lil Harlie will be flying into in two weeks! It is almost as I picture in my mind - more suburban office park than "downtown" Toronto. Safer I hope? Thanks, MAK!

Maybe she thought they were coming for her to take the transmitter off. :2funny:

Maybe she thought they were coming for her to take the transmitter off. :2funny: When Quest was seen on Cape Cod, I remember reading that folks were shocked that she was calm during the many photos people took of her. This might just be her personality. It's not that she is enthralled with humans but she is familiar with them.
