We had 45 to 60 seconds to observe the Merlin perched before it flew thru the wooded area staying head high and across the maintenance lot then around the corner of the building and out of sight. Most of the activity was in the VC lot or low on the mountain! Great pictures on the IBA board by the VC. Roy
