April 16
Seattle Sites of the Day:

Falcon Research Group

"We also found another new nest site on Saturday [June 26, 1999]. This is
our fifteenth pair on the official study area. Back in the seventies, when
we did the first nesting surveys in this region and found nothing, I would
never have believed there could ever be 15 pairs of peregrines here."
Madrona Woods

"The students will select, stake and mark their plot, identify and map the
plants and animals on it, clear invasives and replace them with native
plants. Starflower staff, Parks Department staff and Friends of Madrona
Woods volunteers will be available to teach and learn with the school
children, parents and teachers."
Lincoln Park Cooperative Preschool

"When you enroll your child in a Parent Cooperative preschool you are
simultaneously enrolled in a vocational course through South Seattle
Community College titled 'Parent Education Child Study Laboratory.'"
"Children's Festival will be held in May at Westwood Village.
Each preschool has a booth or two."
