Hey Sean and Derek,
Sorry for the late reply but I've only recently joined the COBirds group!
I'm starting to doubt my light-morph Prairie Falcon ID on Horsetooth Rock
itself one week ago (Thursday, February 4th) now that I've seen all of the
Gyrfalcon reports. My brain hadn't thought to
Hey Derek,
I had the Gyr just south of that site (in Pineridge Natural Area) January 20,
roughly 4:30 in the afternoon. It was perched briefly on one of the large power
poles before flying west toward Horsetooth Reservoir. In subsequent searching,
I haven’t seen it again.

COBirders,
Has anyone seen the Larimer County Gyrfalcon lately? Last update I see is
from the day after Christmas so I thought I'd share. This afternoon 5 Feb
2:45pm at a job site in SW Ft. Collins at the northeast corner of W. Drake
Rd & Overland was quite the bird. This is just below the S
The Gyrfalcon is currently perched on the top crossbar of the first power pole
West of Trilby Road

All,
I just had the Gyrfalcon sitting on the second to last utility pole on the
south side of Trilby but just east of Taft. I drove across the intersection to
park and see if I could get a pic but the bird flew south. I tried to beat him
to the Coyote Ridge parking lot but I never got back
The Gyrfalcon was present this morning along Trilby Rd., west of Taft Hill.
When I arrived at 10:40, it was perched atop an insulator on the crossbar of
one of the shorter (wooden) powerpoles, directly north of the larger steel
tower #13 and about 30 m off the road. About 5 min. later, a
Bird was along Trilby Rd., southwest of Fort Collins as previously
described. It was there when I arrived at about 8:40 and it left towards
the buffet, er...landfill, within 10 min.

At 9:30 this morning, the Gyrfalcon was again on top of one of the metal
power poles just west of Taft Hill Road. It stayed there long enough for me
to get my scope out and on the bird. I watched it for 3-4 minutes, calling
Dave Leatherman in the meantime. At 9:35 it flew southeast across Taft
The Gyrfalcon came through the landfill around 10:15 this morning and then
sat on one of the large power poles on Trilby Road for a while before
flying off to the west to chase some Rock Pigeons and then flying northeast
and out of sight over Cathy Fromme Prairie. The Glaucous and Nelson's
Gulls
Was just visible ftrom trulby and shilelds. Was hunting over landfill
buildings and perched on power poles.

The Gyrfalcon had a fly by today at 11:20. It flew from the dump south across
Trilby Rd. It landed somewhere before the next ridge.

Around 10:45, Georgia Doyle and I arrived just in time to catch a view of the
Gyrfalcon as it flew from the landfill to a power pole on Trilby Rd just east
of Taft Hill Road. It perched there for a few minutes then flew off far to the
East, unfortunately. I can’t be certain but my feeling is
Perched on transmission pole E of Taft

I just had the Gyrfalcon on Trilby Rd. By the landfill. It flew in to the top
of one of the tall power poles & then chased some crows to the south where I
lost sight of it.

A gyrfalcon was seen soaring over west central Fort Collins about 2 pm, near
the cemetery. It was very light with definitive black wing tips. Seen by two
people, no pictures.
