[TN-Bird] Merlin at Standifer Gap Marsh

This morning I had my first of the year Barn Swallow in Collegedale.
I had my first of the year in TN:
  Rough-winged Swallow
  and
  Merlin
both at Standifer Gap Marsh.
The Merlin was the first one I've seen at this location.
While I see them somewhat frequently out west, I don't see many here.
This is only my second TN sighting and that was in 2001.

I did not report a Saturday afternoon first of the year
