Hi All,

Not local news, but if you've followed raptor rehab and reintroduction
nationally, you will know the name of Bob Anderson. Sadly, he passed away
yesterday. Bob was the man behind the Raptor Resource Project -
instrumental in the recovery of Peregrine Falcons in the midwest:

Here's the notice from their blog:

They also have a very active Facebook page, where thousands are paying
their respects:

There is a local connection with some Seattle school kids, and the world's
first Internet birdcam - which Bob started - but I will save that story for
a happier time.

RIP, and many thanks Bob!
