1/1000 sec. f11
ISO 1600
If I have not misidentified it, this Prairie Merlin, a small and very quick falcon, was sitting high in a dead tree near a creek at the roadside close by our cabin on Lake Superior when I drove past. It appears to be a female. It used to be called the "pigeon hawk" in these parts.
