| Some representative birds include red-throated loon, brant, oldsquaw, gyrfalcon, willow and rock ptarmigan, and snowy owl. |
| Golden eagle, gyrfalcon and rough-legged hawks were also observed during the survey. |
| Four characteristic birds of prey include the snowy owl, gyrfalcon, osprey, and rough-legged hawk. |
| When only a streak of silver sky, with a shoal of little violet clouds, was left of the daylight the gyrfalcon gave up the chase. |
| They've both become superb birders, too, able to distinguish in a wing beat, for example, a gyrfalcon from a peregrine falcon during a brief aerial tussle. |
| Bird species include peregrine and gyrfalcon, eagles, ruffed grouse, rock ptarmigan, loons, ducks and swans. |
