While looking for the elusive Yellowheaded Blackbird at PPP early this =
morning (I did not see it), I was directed by two passersby to two =
Merlins in the trees near the sewage pump house? on the Northwest Arm =
side of the park.  A male and a female where there and they posed nicely =
for pictures for about an hour.

In my travels around the park I also noted;
 1 American Goldfinch
14 Surf Scoters (NW Arm)
8 Common Eider
2 Song Sparrows
1 Northern Flicker

The park was very quiet due to the cold wind I guess.
