Guest Ditch_Shitter Posted March 11, 2007 Report Share Posted March 11, 2007 We had just such a Gyr down on the coast at Cornwall, round about five years ago, mate. No questioning that ones credentials. Rare enough occurrance to give any Twitcher palpatations, sure. But in no way unacceptable. I no longer have the litrature, but I wonder if they're 'usually' coastal turn ups? Ditch Shitter ~ Recovering Twitcher. Quote Link to post
Berkutchi 0 Posted March 11, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2007 (edited) Hi Ditch,i know they may occur in coastal areas during winter time but im surprised at this time of year? Thats why i notified the IBR incase its an escaped/lost falcon but it could be the Icelandic race??? Edited March 11, 2007 by Berkutchi Quote Link to post
Guest Ditch_Shitter Posted March 11, 2007 Report Share Posted March 11, 2007 F*ck Me, mate! Your mention of " This time of year " finally pushed me just far enough. I've fished out my old Twitching note book and found 'my' Gyr, which was an off white, just like that bugger. I nearly shit myself when I found the entry! " Gyr Falcon. Carn Gloose, Cornwall. 21/3/00 " I reckon that one's a 'Tick' as well, mate! Pukka kiddie! Quote Link to post
