Falcon Quintilla

A hunter swift with eye that gleams
this Falcon's life's not what it seems.
Once endangered the Falcon cries
rarely heard in Western skies,
now seen up high in city dreams.

Thanks, Kim. Conservationists actually transplanted some of these birds to NY City where they are thriving! I saw a documentary on it.
