Rochester: a great day down town

All pics are courtesy of Jim Pisello

A great Fledge Watch day in Rochester. Jim Pisello reports that the 5 youngsters are still flying downtown and have not yet moved to the legendary Gorge High Falls. But they sure will some time soon. All 5 are well and healthy and are fine flyers. Z-man is the best, but the other ones are catching up fast.

Go to Peregrinations to read Jim's great report and watch the wonderful pictures.

Splendor

" We need another, and a wiser, perhaps a more mystical,
concept of animals.
Remote from universal nature and living by complicated artifice,
man in civilization surveys the creature through the glass of his knowledge
and sees thereby a feather magnified and the whole image in distortion.

*
We patronize them for their incompleteness,
for their tragic fate of having taken form so far below ourselves.
And therein we err, and greatly err.
For the animal shall not be measured by man.
*
In a world older and more complete than ours
they move finished and complete,
gifted with extensions of the senses we have lost or never attained,
living by voices we shall never hear.
*
They are not brethren.
They are not underlings.
They are other nations, caught with ourselves in the net of life and time,
fellow prisoners of the splendor and travail of the earth.”
*
