Some Sad News...

Sole survivor Class of 2006 Whooper #615 was found dead. Cause of death is unknown with no apparent signs of predation, so it's being sent to necropsy for analysis. And then this morning I found a story on BBC News about spring bird hunting in Malta. Truly their motto must be "if it flies it dies." Fair warning – this is a very despicable and depressing story that includes some very sad photographs of protected migratory birds that were shot.
