Hello All,
Les Carlson and Bob Rowe has seen a ferruginous hawk on Ridgefield NWR yesterday. They had better looks than I did the day earlier. I am forwarding the message they had sent me.

If you are on the refuge or Sauvie Island keep an eye out for it.

>>> Today Bob Rowe and I had a good look at what we thought was a Ferruginous Hawk at the River S. about 3/4 of the way through where the road turns north. I saw that you had a short look at one out there last week. We saw it kiting several times and the under side was very light with a very light tail with no bands or markings on the underside It eventually dropped to the ground after pray(unsuccessful) and we had good looks of the all white breast and belly while it was facing us. Checking my Sibley's and my I-bird pro app it fits the first year light phase Ferruginous. What do you think?
