"Birds of wide open prairies and damp, evergreen forests have taken their final breath on the sidewalk of a modern building on our urban campus." ~ T. O'Connell, 2019
I found a Clay-colored Sparrow in the northwestern corner entrance to the NRC this morning, following the first big front of fall with frost near Woodward. I left the bird in place and it was scavenged by the next morning.
His little orthopteran buddy? I haven’t figured that out yet.
