@travis_booms: Gyrfalcon research in Alaska. We use an artificial lure shown here to attract and hopefully catch Gyrfalcons as part of a research project studying diseases in this species. When birds are caught, we take a variety of measurements and samples. We also put a small bird band on their leg and quickly release them unharmed. #alaska #alaskalife #alaskawildlife #wildlife #wildlifebiology #wildlifebiologist #falcon #gyrfalcon #research #arctic #raptor #raptorresearch #environmentaleducation #birds #birdwatching #Science #nature
