To the Editor:

Thank you for the enlightening story of the peregrine falcon from the Causeway Bridge (“Falcon Fledgling Hit By Vehicle on Causeway,” 7/25). I was saddened to hear of the fledgling Blue Bonnet’s passing. But the news of the new foster chick Blue is encouraging.

Also, I would like to thank Ben Wurst and Jim Verhagen for keeping a watch over these magnificent birds of prey. When we see these birds and the osprey alive and doing well in our area we know our environment is also doing well.
