If anyone from the Duluth area is interested in carpooling with me to Gary
Duke's funeral tomorrow in St. Paul, let me know.

Gary was co-founder of The Raptor Center, with his student Pat Redig, was
one of the world's leading authorities on bird digestion, and was a great
man.  I have information about him and links to his obituary in the Strib
and to the article about him in the St. Paul Pioneer Press here:

There is symbolic as well as actual beauty in the migration of birds. 
There is something infinitely healing in the repeated refrains of
nature--the assurance that dawn comes after night, and spring after the
winter.
