I didn't have much information about the Peregrine Falcons in
Portland, Oregon to contribute to the recent compilation. Now
I have more - thanks to a fledgling's mishap that was reported in
our local newspaper.

A pair of Peregrine Falcons nested on the Fremont Bridge over the
Willamette River in Portland. The young female was first seen
with her parents on June 16. On July 27, she crashed into a car
dealer's window in southwest Portland. She was injured and was
coughing up blood. Several rehabilitation specialists later, she
was happily reunited with her family.
