I was able to view a perched Gyrfalcon from the platform at the Wallkill National Wildlife Preserve tonight, at sunset. It was distant, but was flushed by several Northern Harriers and then the Gyrfalcon flew towards me. I have pictures for documentary purposes. I recommend scopes/binoculars for viewing. An exciting bird for Orange County!
