Greetings, 

I had a marvelous view of a brown-backed Merlin that spent 10 minutes or so
yesterday morning (Thursday) attempting to capture a pigeon.  Once it
practically grabbed a pigeon which was sitting on a window ledge.  I was
too busy to post yesterday.  No other hawks in evidence yesterday, though
so far this month I have seen a close Cooper's Hawk and a more distant
Cooper's-sized bird.
