Merlins

9 December - Kemah. 10 Parakeets were on a wire. Then there were none. A Merlin came ripping through, at about 60 miles per hour. Merlins are smarter than Peregrine Falcons. This Merlin came through at level flight. Peregrines have a tendency to stoop. And at times will crash into wires, tree limbs, and the ground. Thereby, killing themselves.
