Condolensces to Big Franks family and friends...I enjoyed his posts and there is one thing he wrote... I always remember:

So next time someone says "ya big deal U saved one bird,what did that accomplish?" You can tell them Windwhistlers story!


The following are his words from the 2012 Toronto King St thread on CMNH:

Great news that WindWhistler has 4 chicks with Erin this season. They will be banded soon. From early shots on our cameras it looks like there is a good chance it will be 2 males and 2 females. This brings to 41 Windwhistlers production.
More great news Windwhistler becomes a Great Grandpa this year!! Stormin one of his 18 King St chicks is the dad at our Canada Square nest in Toronto. Stormin and Haven have had at least 3 chicks hatch.
To me this makes Windwhistler the most incredible example of how important saving even one bird can be to the recovery of an endangered species. Windwhistler was rescued waaaay back in 1998 when he was a chick by CPF watchers. Since then he has gone on to become the most prolific breeder we know of here in Ontario and maybe Canada. He is responsible for 41 chicks getting a chance to fly the skies. We know of several of those chicks that are currently breeding and now Stormin is producing Great Grandfalconchicks of Windwhistler. We are trying to complete a family tree, we are somewhere between 80 and 100 Peregrines that Windwhistler's DNA is in. So next time someone says "ya big deal U saved one bird,what did that accomplish?" You can tell them Windwhistlers story!
