Nice score on the Gyr Tom! Any other Central Oregon records for this
species?

As mentioned in a prior email, I ran my December raptor survey in the
Culver/Metolius/Madras area. The weather was cold (30-34 degrees), gray
skies and about an inch of snow on the ground. I had a great variety of
birds, the 11 species tying the all-time high for the route. The overall
number of individuals, 69, was four below the long-term average. Red-tail
numbers were low, Kestrels were high and those two species accounted for
78% of the birds seen. Obviously, the Gyrfalcon was the highlight of the
day – a very nice Christmas present. Here’s my complete list:
Red-tailed Hawk 31
American Kestrel 23
Northern Harrier 5
Bald Eagle 2 (appeared to be a pair)
Golden Eagle 2 (appeared to be a pair)
Rough-legged Hawk 1
Peregrine Falcon 1
Prairie Falcon 1
Gyrfalcon 1
Cooper’s Hawk 1
Great-horned Owl 1
