Carrie Laben and I spent from early AM through 10:30 AM trying to find the Gyrfalcon with no luck. It apparently is most reliable in the afternoon. Only birds of note during our visit were two Rough-legged Hawks (one at Shawangunk, one along Hoagerburgh), 2 Bald Eagles at the spillway on the

David Burg and I scoured the area around Blue Chip Farm & the Shawangunk Grasslands in Wallkill for the Gyrfalcon today from about 9-1. We did not locate the bird; however, we also noted a surprising absence of other birders, only encountering 2 or 3, so it's entirely possible the bird was
