Re: [cayugabirds-l] Gyrfalcon update please
The reason that species are blocked and hidden as "sensitive" in eBird could be from a multitude of reasons. In terms of the Gyrfalcon, it is a bird at risk for capture and trade by falconers. Exposing the location of such a prized species through public records could spell trouble for the bird. Yes, this gives birders a disadvantage, but the hope is that it saves birds from danger. Many endangered species, especially in Asia and South America are blocked as sensitive to protect them from the illegal pet bird trade.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Gyrfalcon update please
Gladys Birdsall & I looked for Gyrfalcon at quarry yesterday afternoon & did NOT see it. Also did not see either Snowy or Shorteared Owls in all that area around FL Airport.
