We had a similar sized group of Common Mergansers on the Chemung River in
Elmira several years ago. When I first saw them in early summer, the young
all appeared to be the same very small size. At the end of summer, when the
young were nearly full grown, the count was the same. The
State Ornithological Association can be found

I sent this previously to Bob McGuire, but thought that it might be of

The one bird that I've seen Merlin catch was a House Sparrow. The Merlin
that our Audubon group saw last Saturday was hunting pigeons. It split a
flock in two and then cut an individual out of the flock and
of the place. Unfortunately we did not
have enough time to explore it more.

We saw Jay, Tim, and Hope at Sheldrake. I did forget to tell Jay one other
unusual bird we saw was a Red-shouldered Hawk perched in one of the bushy
trees far across the marsh due west of the visitors' center at the Refuge.
