:* '''Comment:''' Not a review, but very nice job, [[User:Mz7|Mz7]]. However, could the hook be reworded thus: ''... that by the time of the events in [[Marcy Cottrell Houle]]'s 1975 book '''[[Wings for My Flight]]''', only 324 pairs of [[peregrine falcons]] resided in the United States?'' I read "that by the events" as "according to" rather than "by the time of," which I suspect is what is meant.

:::{{ping|LavaBaron}} I see your confusion. The book was actually published in 1991. The book ''discusses'' events that took place in 1975. I've included an alternate hook that hopefully clarifies this. Thanks for the comment! {{smiley}} [[User:Mz7|Mz7]] ([[User talk:Mz7|talk]]) 20:38, 22 October 2015 (UTC)

  • Comment: Not a review, but very nice job, Mz7. However, could the hook be reworded thus: ... that by the time of the events in Marcy Cottrell Houle's 1975 book Wings for My Flight, only 324 pairs of peregrine falcons resided in the United States? I read "that by the events" as "according to" rather than "by the time of," which I suspect is what is meant. LavaBaron (talk) 18:02, 22 October 2015 (UTC)
Template:Ping I see your confusion. The book was actually published in 1991. The book discusses events that took place in 1975. I've included an alternate hook that hopefully clarifies this. Thanks for the comment! Face-smile.svg Mz7 (talk) 20:38, 22 October 2015 (UTC)
