Buteo lagopus
Cree Thompson - one was seen
soaring over the central series of
bluffs - high up toward the rim.
Pitnugger - a pair was seen
circling and descending over a steep
weld and takes slope inland from
the view ca 1 mile along the creek
1mri above camp. They acted as
though located in the area but
no nest proof evident in any of
the likely places. Occasional steep banks
in the area but no rock outcrops.
Bird in 87 plunge scream.
Peter-Schwader Lakes - on "Buteo" ca
at a point ca 4 mi NW of Schwader t.-
a pair was evident on the upper
stretch of the bluffs where a pinegrove
armil was located. No nest could be
found but the cliffs were much ag-
gitated by new pulkaws, and the 87
in particular sliced past peres several
times within 20-38 yds. I was not at
cleff when we arrived, and she stayed
quite a ways out when she came in. Both
birds revealed. About 25 pellets were
collected from pickers. They are probably
the "eagles" reported by Bill / Hambird
last year. I halwotted over primaries
