Saoirse:
Along with the people who actively dislike birds or other wildlife, there are also people who are frightened of birds or other wildlife. I agree that common sense would tell a person that possibly the bird was defending a nest or young (also agree that common sense isn't all that common) -- but I think that common sense is a lot easier to access sitting at a computer than it would be with something attacking! I deplore what happened to Scout, but I'd like to hear the worker's side of the story too.
sami:
Unfortunately, there are a lot of people in the world who have absolutely no common sense. I, too, would like to see the guilty person fined. And certainly would like to see lots in the papers and other media about what happened. I wasn't making excuses for the worker, just pointing out that there are any number of people around who don't like birds or any other wild life. I don't like hunters, either, but that's another story.
bcbird:
Good point, Animalover.
AnimalLover:
I have been watching this site and very sad to hear all that has happened. :'( I have to say that if a bird is dive bombing you, anyone has the common sense would know that a bird or animal only attacks when they have young close by!

--- Quote from: The Peregrine Chick on July 07, 2010, 15:50 ---More sad news, according to the Ohio webpage, the new female is Clementine but last night (Tuesday the 6th) she was found dead on the ground so Columbus is back to two birds, one adult (Trooper) and one juvenile (Spirit). Good news though, they believe Trooper and Spirit were observed at the Columbus nestsite this morning.
