<html><div style='background-color:'><DIV class=RTE>Today I went on a hunt for the Gyrfalcon and I was in luck, the Gyrfalcon was on&nbsp;a hunt as well ,for duck dinner. I first encountered the bird at 180th and Emery ave on one of the high power lines post. As I prepared to put the scope on him, he decided to fly south west toward Donnelly ave. with myself in pursuit. Located him from 180th on the north south irrigation system. I continued to Donnelly and by the time i was opposite of the irrigation system he had moved, but suddenly reappeared in pursuit of a duck dinner . He was unsucessful and landed in a tree west of Donnelly. Was able to scope the bird from there with another birder, Mark Junghans. A good time was had.</DIV>
