Observation details
Small female Falcon, very pale sandy brown upperparts, pale auriculars, white wite supercilium. Bird was seen mostly from back and side, but breast streaks that were visible were pale tan and elongated. Seen at close range as it stood on its prey, occasionally tearing bites off. The "Prairie" Merlin seen earlier, was a male, but both of these birds were rather close to the same area. Photos.
