October 31

Happy Halloween!  I ran a quick errand today, despite the light rain.  At the corner where I crossed the road, sitting on the top of a street lamp, was a little bird of prey.  It was dark grey, light breast.  I couldn't see what the streaking may have looked like, the direction of the light, and the rain, didn't make that easy.  However, the top side of the tail feathers did have clear, strong darker or black bands, and a little white at the tip.  I think it was a merlin, but can't rule out peregrine for sure. 

Birds: bird of prey (merlin?)
