Utah Bird Sightings Update Feb 11, 2003



Wayne County

2/11, Nate Hart reported sighting a gyrfalcon at the Bicknell Bottoms.  The Bicknell bottoms are at the base of the boulder mountain.  He saw the gyrfalcon on January 28th.   Nate has worked at a science center in New Hampshire with raptors and rehabbed various types of raptors, including peregrine falcons, Merlin, and red-tailed hawks, so he is quite positive on his ID.  This is a white color phase gyrfalcon.
