Hi Folks,

I just happened upon this article about peregrine falcon chicks dying due to heavy rains in the Arctic spring:
Heavy Rains Are Killing Peregrine Falcon Chicks In The Canadian Arctic

The complete study 'Heavy rainfall increases nestling mortality of an arctic top predator: experimental evidence and long-term trend in peregrine falcons' ( Alexandre Anctil, Alastair Franke, Joël Bêty ) can be read and downloaded here:

And yes, I'm still around and just as busy as always
