Tweeters, I went looking for the Snohomish Gyr after missing it on Sunday
before the Hawks game (Go HAWKS!). I am convinced there are 2 Gyrfalcons in
the area. I did not see the Old Snohomish Highway bird (adult).

Doug Schurman's great photo of this bird:

The bird I saw at the terminus of 115th was a sub-adult, with broader
streaks on breast, and with light gray/blue legs and skin around its eyes,
(ebird report for address:
http://ebird.org/ebird/view/checklist?subID=S16783144).

Pretty cool.
