<p>Hi All</p>
<p>I had the occasion to spend 10 minutes watching a similar
interaction between a Merlin and 3 crows. What was interesting was
that the crows were <b>not</b> in mob mode. All very casual until
the Merlin got tired of the game and left.</p>
<p>All this almost at ground level in some roadside trees. I just
sat in my truck and enjoyed. No binos needed.</p>

I watched a Merlin and two crows similarly taking

Both parties could have left at any point, but didn't. Tell
me that's not play.</span></div>
