On Inlet Island there’s a tall flat-topped metal pole for electric wires. I have seen at least ten different species of birds choose to perch on top of that pole. Twice in the past few days I have seen a Merlin there. The more recent time the Merlin appeared to be urged off by a Rock Pigeon, perhaps (the) one who likes to display there.
