Yesterday there were 3 Merlin at the cemetery. 2 females and a male. Section 85 had the female and male in the same tree and in section 92 the other female. A first for me in the many years I have been observing the Merlin at the cemetery, was that the section 85 female landed on a headstone. I have observed them on the marker posts before but never on a headstone! This evening I was able to observe the section 85 female reduce the local House Sparrow population by another one. That's 2 for the week! The section 92 female was observed also. The I 480 bridge Peregrine Falcon pair were on the billboards on the southeast side of the bridge this afternoon. Have been seeing them out on the billboards at 6:30 AM also. Lou Gardella **************Need a job? Find employment help in your area.
