Update

My Dad wrote to tell me the falcons in Sudbury have worked out better than I described. He says they still have lots of song birds, but the pigeon population is now under control. I stand corrected. But since it was Mom who told me about the falcon fiasco, I guess Dad will now have to correct Mom. Dad, please leave a comment if you survive the experience! 8-)

On a different note, I was in Loblaws today. It's always nice to walk into a grocery store during a 32 degree Celsius heat-wave and stand in the frozen food aisle. Less fun was listening to the announcement, "Would the customer who left his dog in his car please go roll down the window." Obviously the average IQ in Canada remains steady from last summer.
