OK now I know for sure I'm really a bit strange or too soft hearted or wacky or something. I was just watching our evening news on TV and for several years in downtown Winnipeg we've had a Peregrin Falcon who nests on this outcrop area of one of our larger sort of skyscrapers. The forestry people always keep a close eye on her as their numbers are not doing too well. Well we've had some intense rain the last 24 or so hrs and in keeping with the gov keeping an eye on her I guess they figured they'd better go up & check as that ledge area gathered moisture pretty easily. Well they were too late and lost all 3 chicks. Poor mommy now has nothing. So somebody tell me if I'm totally loonie to be emotionally bothered by something like this.

It\'s so upsetting to hear about a tragedy like that. A Peregrin Falcon, not too many of them left. I would be upset about that too. Your not loonie to feel like that. It\'s life. We are entitled to react any way we want.
Hugs to you always. Nancy
heck no, remember how upset I was about the baby robin? I still feel sad about that and remember the verse that says God knows when even a bird falls.... and somehow that makes me feel even more emotional. well, at least with birds, they can usually have another nestful in the same summer. let\'s hope so.
Well that just means that you are a real softy . It makes me sad also so I guess that makes two of us! I am sending a big hug your way, Love and Prayers Sue
Kitty3, you have a soft heart. YOu are not loonie at all. I believe that those feelings are quite normal. Also, that says a lot about you as a person. Very caring!! :)
