    Sam， I say to myself as I start across the bridge， you must stop these thoughts and start thinking about what to do now that you have lost your falcon（猎鹰）， Frightful．

Life， my friend Bando once said， is meeting problems and solving them whether you are an amoeba or a space traveler． I have a problem． I have to provide my younger sister Alice and myself with meat． Fish， nuts， and vegetables， are good and necessary， but they don't provide enough fuel for the hard physical work we do． Although we have venison（鹿肉） now， I can't always count on getting it． So far this year， our venison has been only road kill from in front of Mrs． Strawberry's farm．

I decide to take the longest way home， down the flood plain of the West Branch of Delaware to Spilkill， my own name for a fast stream， that cascades down the south face of the mountain range I'm on． I need time to think． Perhaps Alice and I should be like the early Eskimos． We should walk， camp and hunt， and when the seasons change， walk on to new food sources． But I love my tree and my mountaintop．

Another solution would be to become farmers， like the people of the Iroquois Confederacy who once lived here． They settled in villages and planted corn and squash（南瓜）， bush beans and berries． We already grow groundnuts in the damp soil and squash in the poor land． But the Iroquois also hunted game． I can't do that anymore

I'm back where I started from．

Slowly climb the Spillkill． As I hop from rock to rock beneath shady basswoods and hemlocks， I hear the cry of the red﹣tailed hawk who nests on the mountain crest． I am reminded of Frightful and my heart aches． I can almost hear her call my name， Cree， cree， car﹣ree．

Maybe l can get her back if l beg the man who is in charge of the peregrines（游隼） university． "But it's the law，" he would say． L could write to the president of the United states and ask him to make an exception of Alice and me． That won't work． The president swore to upload the constitution（宪法） and laws of the United States when he took office．

I climbed on． I must stop thinking about the impossible and solve the problem of what to do now． I must find a new way to provide for us． Frightful is going to be in good hands at the university and she will have young．

I smile at the thought of little Frightfuls and lift my reluctant feet．

When I am fat above the river，1take of my clothes and moccasins（鹿皮鞋） and bathe in a deep， clear pool until I am refreshed and thinking more clearly． Climbing up the bank， I dress and sit down． I breath deeply of the mountain air and try to solve my problem more realistically．
