A Change of Opinion

Our bosses came to visit this past week, the PhD student who will make Ferruginous Hawks into her degree and her advisor. With them around we have gotten a chance to hear more about the research and start to get the chance to appreciate the job and the birds a little more. Are FEHAs a truly endangered animal? Maybe not, but the study and observation of patterns in wild populations of any creature has value.

Soon we are going to be starting on the satellite tracking portion of the study. I am looking forward to it. We already have a new owlish roommate named Cecil living in our basement. He shall function as our hawk attractant for when the time comes to catch hawks.
