On Wednesday June 1 I greet Jen from South Bay WIldlife Rehab behind the Lakeside Pharmacy with "Yeah, it's tough finding a parking spot around here, isn't it?" Today's the Big Day but it's also right after the Memorial Day holiday so patients are jockeying for parking spaces. While Jen finds a spot I meet up with my fellow Hawk-watcher Josie Morris from the Oncology department and we go looking for members of the Family. Jen says Mom, or at least the siblings, have to "see" the returning hawklet otherwise they might never know it's back. Jen walks up with the bird in a box; I ask a passing doctor "Have you seen the hawks lately?" to which I get "Not today". We figure they're somewhere around the main hospital building -- but where? We opt to go up on the roof. Josie calls Security and a guard comes down with access keys. He leads us through a maze of corridors up to the only top-roof access he's aware of --- a locked ladder up to a trap door. Can't get up THAT way...Luckily he has keys to a lower level of the roof. We open the door, turn the corner ---
