I saw a bird today that I've never seen before, a Gyrfalcon. This bird lives year round in the Arctic tundra, and occasionally travels south to Montana in the winter. I was fortunate to get a couple of photos. When I first saw the bird, it took off from it's perch, swooped around and strafed a Red-tailed Hawk that was perched on another telephone pole. Now that's a bird with attitude!
The more I look at the picture, the surer I am I saw the Gyrfalcon on a pole on Springhill and Airport Roads. How exciting that you can add it to your life list. Teri
