From GABO-L  sent by Steve Holzman from Athens, Ga.

Even with the new Department of Homeland Security in place, a large winged 
creature made it through Tennessee and Georgia without detection  One of last 
year's ultralight-whoopers showed up this morning at Chassahowitzka NWR in 
FL.She had been missing from Wisconsin since Nov. 14.  She traveled about 
1200 miles in 7 days.  Pretty amazing.

I believe this is possibly female # 7.  If so she is the bird who split away 
from the group last year on their unassisted northward migration.       Your 
right Dee, I do believe she does possess an independent streak.  I wonder 
what her rank was in the pecking order?
