Thanks to Mandi for sending:
“Arrived home from a weekend away to a gaggle of folks on the sidewalk oohing and aahing at this big guy perched on the Argyle. In honor of Native American Heritage Month (I’m Oneida), I thought the rest of the community would appreciate seeing him. In my tribe, the eagle sits from above to warn us of danger (take that as you will) and also carries messages from us to the Creator. If anyone saw him drop a feather, I would be incredibly grateful to know and maybe trade some sage for it?”
Blake also writes:
“Bald Eagle spotted on Mount Pleasant St next to the Argyle building at 2:00pm on 11/18. Quite a crowd formed on the street to look at it! It hung around for about 20 minutes just checking out everybody on the ground. Eventually took off southbound.”
***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].

We’re about a month out from summer. That means you’ve still got time for spring cleaning!
Lexi Grant, an operations manager at Well-Paid Maids, shared her go-to spring cleaning tips with WTOP News. Step one? Declutter. Get rid of items you don’t use, find space for items that need a home and organize those areas.
Then, it’s time to dust. Lexi starts with high-touch surface areas (think: refrigerator, dishwasher, counters, microwave). One area she sees often neglected is the bedroom — and it makes sense. Heavy furniture is difficult to move around, but it’s important to really get in there so dust doesn’t affect your sleep.
