this time in Brooklyn, a young peregrine falcon seemingly lost, one street over from us, we called the ASPCA, Channel 1, Audubon Society, police, Animal Control, wildlife rehabilitators, it's out there sitting now on a sill, this has been going on all day (since my biopsy this morning), television came in, anything to rescue him or her, not sure about food, injury, very short flights, very alert, nothing seems broken, no mother in sight, unbelievably rare for New York City this fastest of all birds, wildness, breaking neighborhoods down (everyone talking to everyone else, exchanging phone numbers, information), later tonight we'll see if it's still there, perhaps tomorrow someone can rescue it, if not, at least we have tried and tried and tried
