Title: Help to ID this Hawk/Falcon please
Post by: bronco on August 14, 2014, 01:25:37 PM

This bird was very co-operative and stayed on it's perch while I sat in my van and took photos first from one direction then waited while I drove up the road did a u-turn and took some more from the other. Your help to ID it will be most welcome -- thanks in advance.

Looks like a Merlin

Thanks for taking the time to provide an ID for me.
