The Canadian Peregrine Foundation is a wonderful organization. Each year at the Sportmans Show(3 years now) I get to volunteer for the Peregrine Foundation. We tell people about the hawks, owls and falcons and give inforamtion on who the Peregrine Foundation is.
Take time to visit the website and become a volunteer or sponsor the program. The rewards will fill you with joy and pride. Thanks Mark and Marion for you wonderful work.
