Wednesday wildlife report
Aug. 27th, 2025 11:32 amSome mid-sized raptor soaring over downtown when I was stopped at a traffic light, gray with semi-pointed wings. Probably not a peregrine because I never saw a wingbeat. Goshawk maybe, though those tend more toward forests. And it's getting into migration season.
Two wild turkeys in a field opposite the transportation museum, either hens or juveniles. Wasn't able to do a thorough scan for others.
Roadkill limited to a couple of flat squirrels. No loss there. No migratory metal birds out at the base.
Got out on the bike, temperature in the 60s F and not much wind. No detours this time. Did not die.
