First Post - The Falcons

For the foreseeable future, most posts on this blog will be reviews, quotes etc, and I hope to find time for some more substantive postings in due course.

Being a lover of wildlife, however, I can`t resist giving an initial mention to the falcons who have taken to nesting on the roof of the W E B Du Bois Library at the University of Massachusetts.

The birds have been there for seven consecutive years, producing an estimated twenty chicks. It`s clear to me they realise the pwer of the written word and want to introduce the chicks to the works of Dr Du B. at the earliest opportunity !
