I quite agree Enraptured!! To think of all the adversities they have to overcome just to survive and then to be captured and trained. The government never knows how to handle anything. Rather than seizing the birds they should have just purchased ones they could have. What's the purpose of falconing anymore anyway? What are they going to do with these birds? Train them to hunt for them, there's not enough ways already to kill wildlife. Sorry, I'm soooo not a hunter.
One thing I don't get is if the falcons are still on the threatened lists why are their laws allowing people to own them. Shouldn't an endangered or threatened species automatically be disallowed for pets or sports or anything else that entitles somebody to capture and own one?

Something to make you smile... ;D
hats off to the st lawrence cement people for their love and care of the birds who have chosen to nest on their site.
Great pic of one of the fledglings being banded and a short video clip below.
