Hi Tim, thanks very much. I've had a comment that said this is a Peregrine rather than a Merlin and they may be correct, but I've looked in all of my books and I still come back to it being a Merlin. Someone that is more of an expert than me hopefully can explain why the confusion.
BTW, just got back from a 4 day 70 mile float trip down the Salmon River, amazing trip.

Great shots of a juvenile Peregrine Falcon. I've observed and photographed a few lately, they can be real characters, and very fun to watch and shoot!!! They're pretty fast too.

The easiest way is to check how prominent the malar stripe is on the Peregrine.
