From the National Mall NPS (National Parks Service):
“This wily coyote (Apetitius giganticus) was spotted yesterday morning in East Potomac Park by our tree crew supervisor. While coyotes are known to inhabit nearby Rock Creek Park, it is rare to see them on the National Mall.”
The photo is a bit far away but Mark also reported to us last week: “Coyote on Rock Creek Golf Course. Kinda cool to see the urban wildlife. That coyote was just hanging out watching us tee off.” (more…)
Thanks to Paige for sending this extraordinary capture: “This guy (or gal? I’m no ornithologist) was completely un-phased by the humans walking by on the Hill”

Thanks to Adam for sharing:
“I just rescued a good sized and energetic snapping turtle from a lane of Piney Branch, just short of Arkansas. Is it odd, being a creature of Rock Creek, that it had barnacles on the shell?”
