[nysbirds-l] 12/25 Gyrfalcon - Cedar Beach Marina

2013-12-26 Thread Carole Hughes
The Gyrfalcon was observed again yesterday (12/25) at Cedar Beach Marina at 
about 1:30 p.m..  It was perched in a distant short cedar-like bush out beyond 
the osprey platform on the east side of the marina.  We had a good scope look 
at the bird from the end of the boardwalk that goes out into the marsh from the 
marina.  There was a Peregrine Falcon perched on the osprey platform for a nice 
comparison.

The bird was sitting and preening.  It was harassed briefly by a couple of 
Northern Harriers.  After about 15 - 20 minutes, the Gyrfalcon suddenly took 
off from the bush, flew very low and fast west over the marsh and caught a 
duck.  It happened so fast we couldn't even ID the duck.  It sat down in the 
marsh, partially obscured, and appeared to be wrestling with the duck. After a 
couple of minutes, it settled further down in the marsh and was blocked from 
our view.

Best,
