Meet our newest patient here at the Alaska Raptor Center, a Northern Pygmy Owl named King Owlbert by his rescuers. Owlbert arrived with a drooping wing, making flight difficult. We’ve given him a supportive wing wrap, plenty of tasty mice, and time to heal. #small #owls #adorable

I’ve always said that Frank Lake is my ‘happy place’ and this week while visiting there I overheard another person use the exact phrase to describe this birder’s paradise! Here’s a pic I took there of a western grebe. 🪶 #birds

I heard that a snowy egret, a rare visitor to the Calgary area, had been spotted near McKinnon Flats southeast of the city. Since it's only 35 minutes away, I decided to take a drive and see if I could spot thebird. No snowy egret, but many other birds including this Eastern kingbird. 🪶 #birds

NEW from Abrego Garcia's attorneys:

"The Government continues to delay, obfuscate, and flout court orders, while a man’s life and safety is at risk. Its request for an extension ... is another stunning display of arrogance and cruelty." storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
PLAINTIFFS' OPPOSITION TO DEFENDANTS' MOTION TO MODIFY SCHEDULE At 6:43 p.m. yesterday, the United States Supreme Court issued an order finding that this Court "properly require[d] the Government to 'facilitate' Abrego Garcia's release from custody in El Salvador and to ensure that his case is handled as it would have been had he not been improperly sent to El Salvador." Noem et al. v. Abrego Garcia et al., 604 U.S. _ (2025), slip op. at 2. The Court further ordered the Government to "be prepared to share what it can concerning the steps it has taken and the prospect of further steps." Id. Last night, this Court ordered the Government to file, no later than 9:30 a.m. today, a declaration from an individual with personal knowledge, "addressing the following: (1) the current physical location and custodial status of Abrego Garcia; (2) what steps, if any, Defendants have taken to facilitate Abrego Garcia's immediate return to the United States; and (3) what additional steps Defendants will take, and when, to facilitate his return." Dkt. 51. This Court's order to facilitate Abrego Garcia's return was issued one week ago. It was not stayed until Monday afternoon. Accordingly, the Government should have been taking actions Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and Monday morning, and the Government can report on those. The Supreme Court lifted the stay yesterday evening. Accordingly, the Government should have been taking actions last night and this morning, and it can report on those. The Government should likewise be in a position to tell the Court in general terms what its further plan is to facilitate Mr. Abrego Garcia's return, and who in the Government is responsible for implementing that plan. Instead, the Government continues to delay, obfuscate, and flout court orders, while a man's life and safety is at risk. Its request for an extension- filed this morning in defiance of the Court's rules requiring consultation with Plaintiffs' counsel-is another stunning display of arrogance and cruelty. It did not take that time to ponder whether to remove Garcia-which it effectuated within 72 hours of his unlawful seizure and it does not need that time to comply with this Court's and the Supreme Court's rulings. We vigorously oppose the Government's motion, and we further request that the Government immediately report on Mr. Abrego Garcia's safety and well being. We will attend the scheduled hearing at 1 p.m. Dated: April 11, 2025 QUINN EMANUEL URQUHART & SULLIVAN, LLP
