Some action pics of this beautiful raptor whose image I shared last week. As I mentioned then, I hadn’t had much luck with merlins in quite a while so was happy that this one put on a nice little show for me. It gave me some great looks as it perched in the lone tree in the area and then flew out to hunt a few times, returning each time. The light and skies were kind of drab but these are by far the best flight shots I have ever gotten of the little raptors.
