[birdky] Merlin

It was late in the day and I was hoping to add a few species to the Calloway 
CBC.  The Adult Bald Eagle was minding its own business on the mud flat when 
suddenly the Dunlin, Least Sandpipers, Killdeer and Bonaparte's took to the 
air in a flurry.  A fast flying Falcon was buzzing the birds.  What a thrill 
to watch the little Male Merlin sit in a cypress tree across from my dock.  
This was one bird I didn't expect to see, what a CBC treat and a new yard 
bird too.
Species count of the CBC will follow later.
