lol Dennis, I hear ya, do so much better taking shots of birds and nature. I suspect you are like me, you prefer to be behind the camera rather than in front of it thus there are hardly any photos of you anywhere lol

...was great to meet everyone...I do much better when the subjects have the wings a flappin...or soaring and on the move.Now that would have been a shot to capture Pergrine Folk standing in down town Winnipeg at a street corner, flapping the arms...lol

Keep us posted as to when the next "meeting" will be taking place... I'll be an after 5er!

Not sure that they were all alive.  We had some differing information, depending on what site we read.  Perhaps it was too late before Kyle got there.  TPC can clarify that.

what s pf?

[Liz]

LOL.  I meant the wrong place for what we had going on today!  Lots of Pf info from TPC.  Sorry to those who couldn't make it.

Oh I don't know about livin in the "wrong place", is correct.  maybe being the wrong place at the wrong time?  I could take that with a lick of salt and a shot. lol

Living in Edmonton, I had to catch the newscast on the CBC website.  Yes, it was a bit shorter than what everyone here would have preferred.  The good news is that the broadcast provided another option for having more people become aware of just how rare these precious birds are, and how fragile their existence is. 

I did not know that the babies were still alive when they were rescued and that they died very soon after the rescue.    

[Liz]

Sorry kids!  *doing the Pf putting my head down, tucking in the wings*  Y'all just live in the wrong place!

That's tv for sound bites.  I saw it too and it was short in my opinion.

[ballywing]

I saw it! - was quite good, they talked about the attempted rescue, the fact that P&T will not re-nest, the foster hopefuls, the Brandon chicks.....it was just a few minutes long - I wanted them to go on & on & on....

[Liz]

Crumbs!  Just reading this now.  I always check CTV (because they start their news 30 secs earlier) to see if they have any main stories they're reporting on that I haven't heard on CBC, but then go to CBC news if they don't and stay there.  Missed it!
