Thanks for the info and note about Tom Cade.
I think it’s fair to say that without him we wouldn’t have any peregrine
falcons on the East Coast anymore.
His innovative captive breeding program was what made it possible to restore
the Falcons.
He was indeed a giant !!

Hi folks. We just lost a true giant in the world of birding, Dr. Tom Cade.
If you're interested, I've written a brief tribute to him and to the
Peregrine Fund, which he helped found.
