Bad new to report! "Virginia" the female falcon flew into a window of the
Parkplace building at 2:15 on Wednesday, June 8th.

It was decided to remove the motherless chicks from the nest since they
are too young to maintain their body heat and would be easy prey for gulls.
A window washing device was lowered to the nest which was on the 56th
floor of the Washington Mutual Tower. They were taken to Woodland Park
Zoo and placed in a brooder.

Has anyone heard what the future plans for them are?
