    Two red-tailed (I think) hawks chasing a bald eagle and making a ruckus.

    Saw this chickadee with a cigarette butt yesterday.

    After I posted it on Flickr, a friend reminded me of these photos taken by one of my favorite bird photographers in Central Park:

    A Google search turned up this article about birds using cigarette materials as insect-repelling nest lining.

    I sent my photo and hers to the researcher quoted in the article.

    I saw this jackrabbit when I was riding two weekends ago. He crossed the road and encountered a fence then sat for awhile to ponder where to go. They're really fun to watch move. On the same ride I saw wild turkeys and a road runner but they weren't up for a photo shoot.
