@Thomas_Llama and I saw a merlin (š˜š˜¢š˜­š˜¤š˜° š˜¤š˜°š˜­š˜¶š˜®š˜£š˜¢š˜³š˜Ŗš˜¶š˜“) while walking through the neighborhood this morning!

Too far away to get a decent picture, but I'm posting it nonetheless because it was a cool moment.

@wplalonde @Thomas_Llama Being out in the open and on the ground I’m wondering if it might have had something it had caught? Great pic!
@danmccullough You're right, actually! It had caught a robin, which we didn't even notice until it flew away with it. (You can kind of make it out in the picture as the gray blur under the merlin.)
