Rare birds airlifted to Texas
Seven aplomado falcon chicks born at the World Center for Birds of Prey near Boise, Idaho were flown to Matagorda Island National Wildlife Refuge in Texas to aid an endangered species restoration. The Peregrine Fund plans to release about 100 birds this year after releasing 338 in total, with 108 last year along Texas Gulf Coast. The youngsters, about a month old, will hunt in pairs within three to six weeks.
