On the afternoon of November 26th-2016, Paul Prappas, Carolee Colter and Terry O'Gorman found a first year Ferruginous Hawk. The bird was hunting on the right side of Kootenay River Road, opposite Speers Road.

Linda VanDamne saw the bird yesterday exactly where Paul Prappas had the bird. Craig Sandvig relocated the immature FEHA in the same spot again today in a field across from Speers Rd and is currently looking at it.

Perhaps it will overwinter, we will see.
