Because it was very hot and humid early, there were more golfers and golf balls to dodge than usual at 7:30.  After no sign of the Merlins for about half an hour, we then were treated to seeing four of them as they flew about, called, landed on the grass, and returned to the pines.  They were mostly in the area straight ahead as you go onto the Golf Course from the parking lot across from the Fire Station.
