Merlin brecknockshire 24.11.08 Andy Davis White / Whitish Tag On Right Wing? Photo in gallery (rather poor). This bird flew very close before landing on this perch, white thing visible then. I question whether it is a tag because such a visible one would harm the birds welfare ( making it conspicuous when hunting in low light)
