I saw my first Merlin on this perfect fall day, perched on a post. Also known as the pigeon hawk, this small falcon captures most of its prey in flight.

Fall Bear

Saw this black bear today in the creek close to our backyard. Meanwhile, Porter's soccer game was happening right across the road in Sacajawea Park...cool sighting today!
