As usual, at Baseball practice, we were doing B.P ( Batting Practice) and was 2nd in line up. While waiting hit, I saw a medium size bird fly atop a telephone post. The wings were very " sharp " but was maybe a couple inches bigger than a Kestrel. I also double checked to make sure it wasn't a Dove ether. I thought this had to be a Merlin, but isn't it too late?? My specialty is Bird of Prey, but Merlin are always a ( ? ) for me :-) Aldo 2 out of 4 Robins eggs have hatched. 2 more to go! ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
