Rare Bird nesting near Moon Lake and Trash Pickup

By turnquistbob | Published: May 29, 2012

This note from Dave Pinkawa regarding rare birds he has nesting in his yard.

We have a nesting pair of rare birds in our yard and I was able to take a picture of it.  It is a Merlin Falcon.  Here is the link to a site that describes the bird and it includes their vocalizations which are the same that we hear all day.  http://www.merlinfalconfoundation.org/vocalizations   Also find a picture of our crab tree in full bloom with a Yellow Swallowtail.

And thanks to the Lawrence family, weekend visitors, for picking up trash on S Moon Lake Rd.
