A good letter about our disappointment to read before Mothers' Day

Received yesterday from a website correspondent:

Marie:

All things considered, we have to be thankful and count our blessings. PM and Lola proved more than once that a nest can be rebuilt, and that it is not the end of the world if a clutch of eggs are not viable. We are truly blessed that these two very special birds allow us to share the world as they know it.

The last line in the May 5th posting [of the newsletter 2005 Peregrine Falcon News] really puts things into perspective: "While nature has the power to break our hearts, it also has an awesome power to restore our faith in the natural order."

As it is said in the lyrics of a song "You gotta do what you can, and let Mother Nature do the rest..."

We should all wish Mother Nature a happy Mother's Day and thank her for the blessings she has bestowed upon us.
