For those who are interested....

Before 9 am a Cooper's Hawk was circling northwest.  

At around 11:15 or so, I saw a Merlin flying northeast.  

Both times I saw these birds after half-minute looks out my window to see
what was disturbing the birds.  There were easily a dozen disturbances
where I failed to find any raptor in a half minute.  

Right now there is a flock of siskins....and would you believe here comes a
Merlin and ..... it got one!  

Actually, the siskin part is part of the Grand Conspiracy.  (-:  Hi Phil  (-!

Both hawks from my sixth story office window.  

Peace, 

Rob
