Hello All,
For all of you that keep office window lists, mine presents a particular
challenge - species diversity. It overlooks Franklin Park at the corner of 14th
and Eye, NW. Today a Sharp-shinned Hawk is busy chasing the many Rock
Doves at the park, and during the past two weeks I have seen a Red-tailed
Hawk and a Cooper's Hawk doing the same.
Here is the complete (paltry) list of species I have seen during the past couple
of years that I have had this window, though I don't spend much time looking
out of it. The Raven was from September 13, 2007 which I posted that day.
Take Care,
