Yes, I saw this bird along Whatcom Creek just east of Cornwall two weeks ago.

It's one of Bud Anderson's Sea-Tac red-tails, and possibly the same one I've been tracking for two months.
This particular bird has ranged from downtown Bellingham to the same area noted in the original post.

I have photos from three separate locations.

With all tagged/banded birds the first task is to ID the bird. Without a species
ID one can't do much.

You can then report them at the easy to remember

http://www.reportband.gov/

and they'll pass it on to the PI who is licensed to use these tags on this
species.

raptor study. She recently saw a raptor perched on a power pole that had a wing
tag with a large number 15 on it. She thinks the tag was blue, but could be
mistaken. The location was at the intersection of Country Lane and Hoff Road,
just northwest of Bellingham.
