It’s a story you will retell again and again. Inspired by true events on Oakland’s Fruitvale Bridge, Flight Lessons tells the story of Peregrine Falcons and humans coexisting at the edge of wild and urban life. The narrative follows an urban wildlife biologist as she monitors a breeding pair of falcons nesting on the bridge.

Exploring themes of home, migration, adaptation, and resilience, Flight Lessons examines the connections between life, loss, and the natural world.
