Description:
Tom McCartney came across this diminutive injured Merlin while he was fishing and birding in the Klamath Falls area in October. He writes, “I suspect it was a gunshot wound because it was dove hunting season. I captured the bird in a rubber fishing net and transported it to the ODFW office in the Klamath Wildlife Area, where they can facilitate its recovery or maybe provide a long life in an aviary. What fierce and elegant little assassins they are!”
