While depositing my recycling into the bins near the Rose Park at Whetstone today around 5, I noticed feathers floating in the air and sticking to my car. I looked around and found a male merlin at the top of a sycamore tree eating his dinner. The tree was west of Hollenback Dr, near the stream and near the picnic shelter. ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
