Case Closed!

Missoulians have cracked case #5 of Find the Falcon!
The Maltese Falcon's secret hideout this week was inside the dumbwaiter of the Double Front Cafe. "The falcon eats fried chicken?" you may ask. In short, yes! Join us this Sunday for a special Raptors of the Rockies demonstration at 2pm in the Large Meeting Room, where you can learn about the diet of the Peregrine Falcon (Mostly other birds. But usually not deep-fried) and meet a Northern Pygmy-Owl name iPod.

Congratulations to this week's hard-boiled Missoulian, Allison D. Visit the library Accounts Desk to claim your prizes!

Didn't win this week? Don't despair. There will be 1 more opportunity to guess -- and an added incentive to participate each week: everyone who submits an answer each week (5 total submissions) will be entered into a drawing to win a final grand prize to be announced at our Big Read finale on November 13th.

Check back this Monday, November 8th for the final case of Find the Falcon.
