Approximately 6 weeks ago Scott Albaugh watched a Peregrine eat a 
woodpecker from his deck near Colerain in Belmont Co.. Last Thursday a 
gentleman from Bridgeport (1-2 miles as the crow flies from Scott A's) 
brought in an injured peregrine he found near the Ohio River. As this bird 
is threatened and I am not a certified rehab facility, I can only 
stabilize and examine. This bird had a beak injury and a bloody spot on 
its right wing but otherwise stable. It was transferred to Medina the next 
morning. The good, the bad, and the ugly. The good-He/she will survive and 
should do well, the ugly-its injurues were caused by gunshot, the bad- we 
have a long way to go about educating a certain segment of the 
population.  Scott Pendleton 
Post script- good news is I flushed my 7th grouse of the last three months 
this a.m..
