Lost Gyr

[Jay]

A friend of mine has recently lost his 13year old white Gyr in the Newburyport/ Sailsbury, MA area. She is an experienced grouse hawk who has had some run ins with eagles in the past. While out flying a bald eagle came in the area and she took off.

She is fitted with two transmitters on frequency 218.1MHz

Did your friend get his bird back yet?

Jay,

Whose bird is it? Or would you rather not say online?

By the way, how was the Blackstone meet?

It is Alberto Palleroni's gyr. We have had a few sightings but nothing on the telemetry yet.

Blackstone meet went well. Tom Early never showed so I couldn't take my general practicle, but the bird was to fat anyways. Dick Morrison and a first year apprentice that Dick took out while we were all at lunch were the only ones to take game, a bunnie each. But it was a nice relaxed meet.
