This fella is why I gave up on Inktober.
ColbyJack is a passage (immature) male Merlin (Falco columbarius columbarius), which are called Jacks in falconry. Jack is to Merlin as Tiercel is to Falcon. Unfortunately, tiercel is used incorrectly by so many people. A Tiercel is specifically the male Peregrine... not a word to be used interchangeably for 'male' to try to sound "smarter."
The dark spot on his gape was from the hood that was used when he was first brought home. He has a better fitting one now that doesn't irritate his gape.
