Into the Urban Wilds

happy pride

Herring Gull Brooklyn Bridge Park, Pier 1

These two mischievous gulls must have taken the baguette from the trash, unless someone threw it to them, I don't remember... but I do want to remind you that bread isn't safe for birds so please, don't be the person who left that bread in the park, be better.

Kingfisher and Great Egret lined up just right

Terrible photo (I took it through the screen door) of a Very Fine Rabbit who's been hanging around on the side of the house recently, during the late morning/afternoon it seems to just sit under cover of some brambles, but when I first walked into the kitchen and looked out the door for it this morning it was under a tree, apparently sniffing out and eating fallen green leaves amidst the general winter dead foliage/sticks/&c. I think I'll go rip some leaves off the tree and leave them on the ground for the rabbit to find tomorrow.

sketch of the day: american woodcock

(I know they're hunters and all but I swear kestrels are too adorable for being birds of prey.)

our resident weird nuthatch (again) perching on the squirrel baffle after having missed the landing on the feeder I'm starting to think I should give him a name

resident (white breasted) nuthatch checking out the wildlife camera... this guy is a little weirdo he had a feather out of place for a couple weeks so we could tell it was always him doing all the ridiculous shit like this

Watch your pets! Don't step on goose poop! Take care of each other!
