Hello!
A few days ago, I sent around a link to a picture of a raptor that I took
last Thursday in Forest County. Several people concurred that it was a
young Broad-winged, but two people thought it could possibly be a young
Merlin. The white supercilium specifically threw off one person. I didn't
get to hear it or see it fly--it flew in front of the car, perched up in a
tree for maybe two minutes, then flew off. I don't have photos of it from
other angles, either. I'm including the link again--if anyone else
opinions, could you please share them?

Thank you, everyone!
