Thanks to Molly for sending: “The photo is terrible, but my friend and I saw this really cool crow near 10th and Florida. Its not sunlight on the wings, It had black and white feathers! Almost like a Magpie, but I didn’t think Magpies lived around here?”

Thanks to Ted for sending “We’d spotted this barred owl pair’s roost near Meadowbrook Park a few weeks ago and had been watching them come and go and call to each other in the late afternoon/evening. Last weekend when one adult left the nest a new face appeared: the fledgling! Sorry for the zoomed in phone pics, an adult was perched watching us in the next tree over and I didn’t dare get any closer.”
