My fellow bird rescue volunteers helped a pair of bald eagles yesterday! This is a screen shot from a video of them on the ground with their feet locked together. These silly rabbits are thankfully both okay, if a bit frazzled. 😆

I’m on a normally packed train hoping I’ll be okay for a short ride. I snagged the view out the back of the train. I’m bored and raised here but still gawk at the views like a tourist lol.

Still my absolute favorite view in the entire city. 😍🥰 I’d share bald eagle photos, but my phone was struggling in the evening light and across the distance of the lagoon.

Please and thank you. It’s a small, easy thing to do to save bird lives during spring and fall migration. 💚

I checked the nearby hospital tower for the first time since Monday and found four dead migrating birds. 😢 This is the first time I’ve found a common yellowthroat there in nearly a decade. 💔 The others — two kinglets and a thrush — were too decomposed to salvage or share here. 🪶

I snapped a photo with the West Nile Virus crow I helped yesterday. This angle makes him look tiny, but he was a full grown adult. He was stoic, as they so often are. He died before we could even transport him to rehab. The hotline calls for sick crows have been relentless this summer. 😔💔

Okay. I’m 98% sure it’s just a gawky new fledgling. The caller tucked him under some hedges. Adult crows are yelling and swooping. She’s going to check on him in the morning. Everyone keep your fingers crossed 🤞💗🐦⬛

Oh no, it’s another baby crow. I’m keeping my fingers crossed it’s just a sleepy kiddo. The latest update is that adult crows are yelling protectively. 🤞❤️🩹

Here’s a short clip of two of the (at least three) crow adults that are tending the nest. Nobody is staying behind to sit on eggs or hatchlings, so I’m pretty sure they’re feeding nestlings. 🐦⬛

My first ever Eastern Whip-Poor-Will. 😢 He was lying in a bike lane half a block from the nearby hospital tower that kills migrating birds. RIP beautiful birb 💔
Note: This bird was collected under the required permits and will go to the Chicago Field Museum’s bird collection.

That time a dad goose hug-attacked me in a different part of Lakeview. He also climbed on top of my deployed umbrella twice while I knelt to offer him peanuts on another visit. 😂 We were ultimately able to rescue four goslings and keep the family together. 🐥🐥🐥🐥

It’s wild because I can deftly run a formal meeting with a large group tackling a complex project (teammates have even given me unprompted compliments!), but take away the structure and it’s like this hilarious Sarah Andersen comic. 😅

The crow pre-roost party stopped by my yard today! 😍 There were ~50 crows in total. I was too busy greeting them and tossing peanut treats to get any good photos of them swooping me. I used to regularly feed them before my tree got chopped down, so they know me. 🥰🖤

I popped into Anthropologie after an appointment downtown and resisted the urge to buy this delightful pillow. I’m very proud of my restraint. 😅

Apologies for cross-posting from FB, but this is incredible news! We just had the first ever sighting of a Common Raven in Chicago!!! 😍 They live in Michigan and have occasionally shown up at the Indiana Dunes in recent years, so I’ve been not-so-patiently waiting for them to find Chicago. 🎉🎉🎉

Post a PERFECT album from the 90s that isn't Nirvana or Pearl Jam (or Radiohead or Tori Amos).
