My father and I had either a female or juvenile Merlin perched on the metal high-tension tower behind Bruegger's Bagels on Merriman Rd., over near the Cedarwood Apartments in the Merriman Valley. This would be just northeast of Sand Run Metro Park or south of Cuyahoga Valley National Park here in Akron.
     Coincidentally, we were headed to Calvary Cemetery in Garfield Hts. to try to see one or both of "Lou's birds". We still went, and observed the "Section 85 bird". A very obliging bird indeed. Thanks Lou!
