I'm glad to see the pics from up north. It's a great learning tool. What
sex and age do you (and Ryan) think it is. Almost looks as if it has a
slight wash on the upper breast. Also interesting is that the tertails and
flight feathers have no white on the edges. It make you realize that a
female Hoary is very hard to write up if you miss anything. Atleast for me.
I really suck at it, but working on getting better. Steve Thiessen Stoughton
