Hello Tweeters,

Patrick was right the first time with identified the falcon what we found
injured on Tuesday.We handed this bird over to the attendant,and I could not
take a photo of this bird. When I called the clinic today,they told us that
the bird is a healthy first year Peregrine Falcon.The bird will stay for few
days and X-rayed in case the bird has something wrong internal,but the way
it sounds this bird will be released after the exrays and they found nothing
wrong. One tough and lucky bird I must say. He had full speed when he hit
the truck, and thank you all for the information and concern .
