Thank you, Carly. Yes, I understand that one's experienced eyes will provide answers. Do you have any idea about the cause of death? As with many living things on this earth, I am sure it is just Mother Nature making her own decisions. B.

This is probably obvious... but how did anyone discover that the eyas had died? If I look at the images, I would never be able to tell that. I guess if you watch them all quite a bit, you can tell. Poor wee thing. I am sure the "pros" would like to know what happened. (PS - glad to be back after a long absence! XX)

Have not been here for quite a while - long stories, and certainly of no interest to anyone! But I had to come back on today as I try to come to terms with the loss of Donna. Her life was thrown into so much turmoil with the very recent loss of her beloved Ed, and everything hinged on leaving for Spokane and her treasure of a grand-daughter, Olivia. Thru Donna on FB, we have watched the little girl grow and thrive and get ready for the arrival of Granny and Auntie Kara. How this can be now, I cannot imagine. We have loved you, DG! And I for one will miss your dearly - esp our chats whenever I was home in ROC. Vaya con dios, amiga! XXXXX

Where did this falcon season go? I thought I'd put out a reminder to everyone that we'll be needing pictures for our 2017 calendar soon.  So go look for all your favorite pictures! There will soon be a call for pictures!
