This morning I took a walk to Bagley Nature Area, and had some fun times out birding. One of the highlights of the morning was seeing a Merlin zip through a flock of Cedar Waxwings. The Merlin came out without anything in its talons, but it was such a neat sight and sound to witness! I even heard the sheer force of the Merlin moving by (it happened within about 30 feet of me).
The past few days' eBird lists of Bagley are below. http://ebird.org/ebird/view/checklist?subID=S11083874 (today) http://ebird.org/ebird/view/checklist?subID=S11077459 (yesterday) http://ebird.org/ebird/view/checklist?subID=S11073702 (Saturday) Some pictures from the past few days of visiting Bagley.
