I took a short drive yesterday, just to get out before the storm and the likely chance of being snowed in today. As luck would have it, I stumbled upon my first Merlin.
Even though the light was poor, I was still happy to find this falcon perched in a dead snag not far from home.
I often see kestrels in this vicinity and at first glance I thought this was a kestrel on steroids. Closer observation revealed a different bird entirely.
Thanks for visiting, be well and stop back soon.
