Andrew, Curt et al, UPDATE DETAILS: We arrived on Weds, 2/11 from 11:15AM to 5:10PM. We checked intel on Old Fort Road with NO sightings of Gyrfalcon. We continued to drive down old Fort Road and around the surrounding roads of Sacs/Sax Road, Bruyn Turnpike, Hoagerburgh Road, Lippincott Road, Bates Lane, Long Lane, Albany Post Road including Shawabgunk Grasslands. Then went back to Old Fort Hill Road for the duration. By the end NO GYFALCON we know of was seen on weds 2/11 despite the efforts of over 100 observers.
