Someone reported a Merlin calling repeatedly near Judd Falls Rd. It can't be a fledged young . None of them fledge before early July. Female are much bigger than males. The call is a solicitation, it certainly is followed by mating and by feeding, sort of a two for one purpose. Thanks for the report. John confergoldw...@aol.com --
