Peregrine Falcon Makes a Kill

Ben identified and photographed this event last weekend. In the first picture you can see the pile of feathers from the kill, and in the next two you can see the falcon flying off with its prey.

May God bless you and keep you from the predators of this world!

The best place to find love is not in another person but in a book, the Bible. The Bible tells of God’s great love for us. This is expressed in what my friend called the best love note she had ever received. It’s found in John 3:16.

For God so loVed the world,
That He gAve
His onLy
BegottEn
SoN
That whoever
Believes In Him
Should Not perish,
But have Everlasting life.

God loves us like no one else ever could. He showed that love when He sent His Son, Jesus, to be our Savior. He’s also the best companion we’ll ever have.
