A few minutes ago an unusual visitor to the Bird feeder showed up. My wife
called me over to the window to see a hawk eating something. Turns out a
Merlin caught a Cardinal and flew up to the perching tree and had a late
dinner. Found the leg and beak at the base of the tree for species
identification. There is a Brown Headed Nuthatch nest not far from the
perch on the main trunk and I was hoping it wasn't one of the nuthatches.
