HI Folks,
The fledgling Merlin was ~10-15 m from me as I took images of it. At one point it was trying to climb up an immense pine tree trunk using its claws, beak, and wings. Not very efficient, but ultimately successful. The originals are really nice, but ~8 mb. I tried to send them without compressing them and they didn't go through. So, I used the edit command for Microsoft Image Viewer to compress them for sending. The result was a disaster. I really am a technological troglodyte. I thought the images were charming and spoke for themselves, so I added no text. Sorry to waste your time.

It had two pictures of a young merlin attached. I think that, since it had no text in the body of the message, save the Cayuga list material, and two attachments, some email programs reacted and stripped the attachments. That seemed to be what Peter's did. Mine came through with clearly .jpg attachments, which seemed reasonable for the subject line, so I opened them. They may have been sent from a phone, perhaps one like mine, which is not very smart and takes low-pixel pictures.

Date: Sun, Jun 28, 2015 5:52 pm Hi folks. Can any out there tell me if this is a legitimate email from John. It is very similar to one I received recently from another group member. I don't know why she or John would be sending it. Many thanks.
