Aw... so sorry to hear of the death of Maya. :'( You have given us all so many wonderful memories of her through your beautiful photos of her, RCF. Thank you. :-*

We had a couple of storms here with hail and strong winds the week Maya was not around. The first one on the 11th and then on the 15th. I am inclined to think she may have been blown around and got too far from home and then disoriented and lost her way. :-\ :(

Definite possibility - especially given the kinds of wind storms y'all have out there - and the timing is very good. If it was a storm, the storm on the 11th would mesh with her condition on the 16th, the 15th would be too short a period of time. And she wasn't that far, so she may well have been working her way back but just ran out of steam before getting there. Sure gives one a better sense of all the hazards out there - we usually just focus on the immediate ones near our urban nestsites. With more less-than-dense-urban sites (Selkirk & Brandon Tower) we are seeing different types of hazards. And the chicks haven't even begun their southern migrations yet!
Doreen:
Such sad news. :'( Fly free beautiful Maya!
