Thanks! I'm mostly sad that the two kittens are here temporarily. But after a morning of kitten and cat chaos I have moments when I'm glad they're only temporary residents.
Zach. He'll be up for adoption in the Bronx 237th Street Petco in late June or early July, once he's been neutered and had his first round of shots. His mom is there now and he's practically a clone of her. She's 10 months old and still needs to be spayed. She'll be up for adoption once that happens, which should be soon.
I thought I was taking a photo of a Red-winged Blackbird. Or a European Starling because there were babies in a nest box just to the left of this tree. But no, it was neither! This was totally unexpected and my first time seeing a Bobolink.
I made a trip to Overpeck County Park in Leonia, NJ today just so I could see Purple Martins. They have a nice condo setup but it seems to be lacking bedding so the birds were busy shopping this morning. Looks like the condos will be lined with grass and leaves.
The Killdeer nest has failed. And someone stole 2 eggs. One of the Killdeer looked like e was making another nest in the middle of the field that will be filled with cars in two weeks. Hopefully the third attempt at a nest will succeed.
@BeazLouise oh nooo, that is very sad to hear. Bless you for caring and being an advocate and friend to them. I’m sure you will open some of those dog owners eyes to change their behavior. Sadly some people are hopeless 🥺
