CityHunter.uK 12 Posted June 3, 2012 Report Share Posted June 3, 2012 Billy long shot but did it look like an older male with telemetry on? I lost one in the dry dock at pallion about a year and a half to two year ago bloody thing caught a pigeon in the rafters where the cranes run and then spent a month or so eating its way through the pigeon population before it left the area. Was nine year old so would be 10 or 11 now. Quote Link to post
dek 0 Posted June 4, 2012 Report Share Posted June 4, 2012 Hi I too have seen the hawk, in Jarrow, just yesterday it has a bell on, we have photos as well. I realised it must be away from home, after reading that they dont go home if they get away. I have just joined the site trying to find out if anyone has lost one, have no idea how to pm or contact you, let me know and if you have a photo send it to me and will hopefully get a match Quote Link to post

CityHunter.uK 12 Posted June 5, 2012 Report Share Posted June 5, 2012 Probably looking raggy due to moult and probably a recently lost one the one I lost has never been heard of or seen so I presumed it was dead. Quote Link to post
