Thanks in part to contributions from this list serve, the number of Merlin nests discovered in Tompkins County has included 6 in 20158 in 202010 in 202211 in 2024 and in 2025 Geo Kloppel and I are trying to do this survey again this year. We hope to find every nest in Tompkins County and to follow each nest carefully enough to determine the number fledged for each nest. We hope to document the nesting success of urban/suburban Merlin. We follow up on every report of Merlin to this list serve or to eBird. We've already started as several Merlin sightings have been reported this season, although this is a bit early for nesting. WE WOULD VERY MUCH APPRECIATE YOUR HELP AGAIN THIS YEAR. PLEASE SEND IN YOUR MERLIN OBSERVATIONS John Confer and Geo Kloppel
