Merlin trying to subdue a Ruddy Turnstone it struck on the ocean beach.
Observation details
Watch as a Merlin captures a Ruddy Turnstone on the beach. Over about a minute, the Merlin fails to subdue the turnstone, and when a wave washes over both of them, the Merlin lets go of the turnstone. The Merlin then flew out over the water, and was seen chasing what was presumably the beleagured turnstone.
