[Mnbird] Prairie Merlin

[dan&erika]

Hi All—Yesterday John Holden and I photographed a Merlin about two miles
west of the 180th Street Marsh in Dakota County. We assume this bird is the
Prairie race of the Merlin. The photo is on my blog, along with a photo of
a Richardson’s Merlin taken a few years ago in Rice Co.  My understanding
is that the Prairie race of Merlin is less common than the Richardson’s in
eastern Minnesota. http://dantallmansbirdblog.blogspot.com
