Thank-you for a great year!

while driving home from a big day of seeing 6 FEHAs and 5 RLHAs we stumbled across this Merlin, before we got up close bird looked "Coop-ish" but as we got closer the tail wasn't long enough and the eye stripe was evident.

great day Mary Beth, Solano Land Trust Raptor ID Team Coordinator.
