Your creativity will soar through coloring and other activities as you discover how the peregrine falcon is a force of nature — and healing — at Mayo Clinic. Since 1987, a nest box atop the tall buildings at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, has been home to generations of peregrine falcons. Established to help save the endangered species, the Mayo Clinic Peregrine Falcon Program allows patients, staff and falcon fans around the world to watch — in person or online — as the falcons raise their young. Through these majestic creatures, we see that nature can be a vital part of the healing process and a reminder of the wonder of daily life. Wildlife lovers of all ages can meet the falcons and learn about the earth’s fastest animal through fun activities and surprising facts. Inspiring stories, original illustrations, color photographs and a stunning four-color centerfold depicting a chick's development also bring the peregrines of Mayo Clinic to life. Printed on high quality paper ready to enhance with crayons, pencils, markers, or watercolors, each coloring page is perforated for easy removal and display. Taking Flight: The Peregrine Falcons of Mayo Clinic is more than a coloring book — it’s a tribute to the resilience of the birds who inspired it.

From the late 1960s until the end of the Cold War, the United States Air Force acquired and flew Russian-made MiG jets, culminating in a secret squadron dedicated to exposing American fighter pilots to enemy technology and tactics. Red Eagles tells the story of this squadron from the first tests of MiGs following the Vietnam War when the USAF had been woefully under-prepared in aerial combat. These initial flights would develop into the "black" or classified program known internally as Constant Peg. At a secret air base in Nevada, ace American fighter pilots were presented with a range of differnet MiG jets with a simple remit: to expose "the threat" to as many of their brethern as possible. Maintaining and flying these "assets" without without spare parts or manuals was an almost impossible task, putting those flying the MiGs in mortal danger on every flight. Despite these challenges, in all more than 5,900 American aircrews would train against America's secret MiGs, giving them the eskills they needed to face the enemy in real combat situations. For the first time, this book tells the story of Constant Peg and the 4477th Red Eagles Squadron in the words of the men who made it possible.
