Yesterday I posted a single photo from this series and told readers I’d post the rest of them as soon as I could. Black Friday was my first opportunity.
Within a span of just a few minutes three of our resident birds, including two raptors, gave this recently arrived female Merlin a very hard time so I figured she deserved a more welcoming greeting from another Utah resident. That would be me in today’s post.
Chicks this age always give me hope for the future. I guess I needed some reassurance after worrying about the late breeding pair of Western Grebes I photographed a few days ago.
