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.Last edited by PamNY; 03-19-2013 at 09:30 AM.

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.

As seen on a local rail trail - an Eastern Water snake trying to suck some warmth out of the asphalt. We almost ran it over, so I got a long stick and pushed if off onto the grass.
They are not poisonous, but it was quite aggressive, coiling up & striking at the stick.
