I got a call Saturday from the DEC that they had a redtail that was hit and killed by a car and wanted to know if it was mine.
This was a falconry bird with all the equipment on bells, jesses & anklets.
Any one from NY lose a bird?

We had an apprentice loose one here in Williamsport back in the late fall. Could be the same.

I don't think so Fred, there was no mention of a transmiter or reward tags.

I just re-read that thread and he said no transmitter. And the bird has been out for quite a while, so possibly the reward tag was pulled off. Who knows?

Yep, I guess we will never know.

I lost mine about 3 1/2 weeks ago. Anklets and bells, no jesses. I found the transmitter on the ground the same day she skied up and went to drifting. I hope it's not her. I like to think she's doing just fine.
