Peregrine Falcon 20-495 Released
Seven weeks ago Peregrine Falcon 20-495 was admitted with a fractured left tibiotarsus (shin bone) and a fractured right clavicle. Her injuries healed without complications. You will see in the video that she was a little slow out of the box, mostly due to her crop full of quail. Once she got going, she flew higher and higher until we could no longer see her.
