Columbia Heights

Today* in Hawks*** around Town

Thanks to Corinna for sharing this black crowned night heron in Columbia Heights:

“walking home in Columbia Heights around 8 on Saturday to find a black crowned night heron just sitting right off the plaza on Kenyon.

I know they nest down by the tidal basin and at the zoo but I’ve never seen one up in this neck of the woods! He even stayed long enough for me to grab my real camera.”

If you spot a hawk, any interesting wildlife or celebrity skateboarder Tony Hawk, and get a good photo please send in an email where you spotted them to [email protected]. Thanks! Hawks around Town is made possible by a generous grant from the Ben and Sylvia Gardner foundation.
