Observation details
Perched at the top of a power pole, corner of 6th and Roberts. Relatively light back and head - generally brown/tan but a bit bluish on scapulars. Female or immature - does the bluish tinge suggest a SY male? Notable buffy speckles on the lower parts of the scapulars. Remained perched throughout the observation period. Several times pedestrians walked along on the sidewalk underneath it, oblivious to the Merlin. It would crane its head downwards and watch them, seemingly unconcerned.
