More Gyrfalcons on January 13, 2008

This adult gyrfalcon was about 3 miles NE of
Gray Goose. It flew off the pole before I could get stopped and this is all I

north of the road to Okobojo Point. A few minutes later I saw another adult
flying north of the Okobojo Point road, about 2 miles from Highway 1804.
