Thanks to Brian for sending this awesome shot: “I managed to grab a shot of one of the arboretum’s pair of bald eagles (Mr. President and Lotus) in the act of hauling back home improvement materials (a branch with dead leaves) for upgrading their nest in preparation for breeding season!”

This is also the title of my upcoming podcast and if I ever form a John Denver cover band we shall be known simply as Chicken Visits @ The Gate.

God I love this chicken (and family.)

Thanks to Ben for sending from Bloomingdale: “SNAKE in alley next to Crispus Attucks Park!”

We’ve seen lots of Black snakes (which are good – eat rats/mice etc.) but anyone know what type this is?
