Five of us Einstein Fellows took a trip to Pennsylvania north of Gettysburg to the
Hawk Mountain Raptor Sanctuary. I drove my car and Geraldine was my navigator. It was a nice three hour drive and felt good to get out on the road and away from the city. The Education Specialist, Jeremy Scheivert invited us to give some teacher ideas for the education outreach program. We had some great brain storming and idea sharing. The two of the most abundant migrating raptors at the sanctuary are the turkey vulture and the black vulture.

| My good friend, Geraldine. She is from Florida and was a little nervous with the heights. No mountains in Florida. |

| This black vulture landed about 20 feet below us and put on a little show for us as he enjoyed the warm sun. |

I think your falcon looks just like the Kestrels that we have in our bird house. Last year they raised four babies.
