We trapped Sunny, the columbarius (tiaga) merlin in Florida on October 7, and released her today after four months of active hawking for small birds in Louisiana and Texas. She was flown at 175g, three grams under her trapped weight, and released at 215g, 40 grams above flight weight. She was a very good bird. I wish I had more slips for her. Godspeed, Sunny!
