I had a lifer today when I FINALLY spotted a Merlin! This year I've been able to check the boxes of two small raptors, this and an American Kestrel. #Birds #Birding #Wildlife #Nature #Photography #Animals #Photos #Photo #ECK #Raptors

A Merlin is perched at the top of a cedar tree.

Thank you!

Thanks! I kept getting photos of it from the side or standing on something with its wings down so was happy when I got this shot.

Compared to last weekend, there were a lot less hummingbirds and monarch butterflies. Lucky to see this one. #birds #birding #birdphotography #birdwatching #instabirds #wings #wildlifephotography #nuts_about_birds #naturephotography #photography #photographersunited #blueskyartshow #eastcoastkin

First time photographing a bird in flight. I wasn’t quick enough to catch it from the front this time. #birds #birding #birdphotography #birdwatching #instabirds #wings #wildlifephotography #nuts_about_birds #naturephotography #photography #photographersunited #blueskyartshow #eastcoastkin
