My husband works in the NOAA Science Center in Camp Springs, right near Branch Ave and 
the Beltway. He asked me a few weeks ago if it was possible that he saw a raven near his 
building. I said I wasn't sure they came down to this altitude, but judging from all the 
reports on Osprey, maybe we're going to have an urban raven population like Seattle or 
Tokyo!
