While looking for the Merlin that was here weeks ago, I heard ,then saw a single male Purple Finch. Anyone interested, enter the main gate and keep to the right clear down to the green maintenance building. there was a tight grove of spruces in which he was perched atop at about 4 pm.. Lots of black coffin looking things stacked near here. No Merlins were sighted, and except for the finch it was pretty empty. Greg C.
