The Peregrine Falcon – The Teflon Bird of Prey

“Look up! It’s a bird…..It’s a plane……It’s The Peregrine Falcon!” Sounds familiar doesn’t it? Superman was a fictitious character, as was Humphrey Bogart in the Maltese Falcon, and although very popular and very entertaining, was no match for a real, super bird called the Peregrine Falcon. This creature is one of the most powerful and fast-flying bird there is. The Peregrine Falcon probably has one of the longest migrations of any bird in North America. Covering as much as 15,500 miles in one year over two different continents, spanning North and South America, hence the meaning of the falcon’s name, “wanderer” or the scientific name of “falco pereginus.”

This is an incredible flier! You will find that these falcons are averaging 25-34 miles per hour in traveling flight and as fast as 69 miles per hour in direct pursuit of prey with a hunting stoop from heights of over .62 miles! I don’t even know if a Geo Spectrum could cruise at that speed. After reaching speeds of 200 miles per hour, they will drop toward their prey and kill it by biting into the neck of a passing songbird, duck and occasionally bats. OUCH!!! These falcons are so acrobatic, they can even catch their prey in mid-air. What a feat!!! Continue reading “The Peregrine Falcon – The Teflon Bird of Prey”

Farmers Markets – Local, Great Tasting Healthy Food, And Good For The Environment

Local, Great Tasting Healthy Food, and Good for the Environment! Certified farmers’ markets enable certified farmers to sell seasonal, often organic, only local grown and raised produce and food products. Typically, products sold must be produced by the producer upon the producer’s land.

What’s In It For You and Me?

Locally produced food is fresher, tastes better and is environmentally friendly- it dramatically reduces the energy cost to get the food to the table. And farmers’ markets are flush with always local, organic foods which use neither fertilizers nor pesticides which together account for more than 1/3 of the energy used to make food.

Then there’s the health benefit of organic food. Not that organic food is, in itself, necessarily healthier than other food but that the absence of pesticides and insecticides makes it a better choice. Today, the EPA considers 60% of all herbicides, 90% of all fungicides, and 30% of all insecticides as potentially cancer-causing.

Let’s Go To Norwich

There are some places in this world where walking seems too fast a pace. Norwich is just such a place. Hurry to get there but do not hurry once you are there. For example it has about 60 medieval churches. Each church is a work of art itself and each church has artisanship and a history of its’ own. Just the woodwork is fantastic to gaze at.

If you like stained glass, this is the place to go. Back in the days when craftsman and artists were revered. It is as though wherever you sit the beauty changes as the day and the sun moves along. Some are like rainbows of intricate design that gently change their hues, like living breathing art. And then return at night with lighting designed just for beauty and all the windows change again from both within and outside the churches.

One of the best things about Norwich is that you can get all the medieval beauty without the Gothic gloom. The city is fresh and alive and clean and basically cheery. Norwich even has quaint well kept and clean canals. The old bridges themselves seem to be works of art. Continue reading “Let’s Go To Norwich”
