Hi all, I was on phone with Bill Evans about couple of hours ago when a Nighthawk appeared in view from Vet School side and circled over and flew away east of the building.
Yesterday while I was walking EIRW near Maple Wood Apartments, I saw a Ronin collecting mouth full of earthworm, it did not flush very far when I walked quite close. I thought he was collecting it for his female on the nest. But to my surprise a baby robin flew to the fence and started giving a begging call and it was well fledged but still some juvenile plumage could be observed. That is one heck of a productive Robin pair!
