This happened yesterday and I wished I still carried my camera with me everywhere.. It's just not very practical for work..

as always the intersection of wildlife and citylife is super interesting and a city bird is almost always worth saying hi to

A Red-tailed Hawk landed in front of us as we were walking in Forest Park and gave us a stern look as if to warn us not to pass. We continued on our path without incident.

Another One Bites the Crust

Meet London’s most successful entrepreneur. This seagull has cornered the market on prime real estate with a view. Perched on the Millennium Bridge like it owns the place, this feathered opportunist represents everything brilliant about urban wildlife adaptation. While Freddie Mercury sang about another one biting the dust, this gull’s motto is clearly “another one bites the crust”, and judging by its confident posture, business is booming.

From this vantage point, our avian overlord can survey the entire pedestrian buffet streaming across the bridge below. Dropped sandwiches, abandoned chips, and tourist snacks are all fair game in the urban food chain. Those gleaming towers in the background might house London’s financial elite, but this bird has figured out a more direct route to success: position yourself where the food comes to you.

It’s a bird city

Cork City, where birds have become incredibly adept at turning human carelessness into dining opportunities.

Urban-adapted birds like the seagulls and crows photographed here have developed significantly different behaviours compared to their rural counterparts. City-dwelling seagulls often show reduced fear responses to humans and have learned to time their foraging around peak human activity periods, such as lunch hours when dropped food is most available.

Crows, meanwhile, have demonstrated remarkable problem-solving abilities in urban environments and can even learn to associate specific locations with regular food sources. Studies have shown that urban bird populations often have different dietary compositions, stress hormone levels, and even song patterns compared to rural birds, reflecting their adaptation to city life and the constant presence of human activity.

European Starling that was foraging with a few of its buddies near a playground in Amersfoort we saw on our walk through the center.

One of the regular Red-tailed Hawks from the cemetery down the street. I am almost guaranteed to see a raptor of some sort when going there, and I am there almost daily.

The floof balls popped up again today. But this time super quiet, just sneaking onto the balcony and softly chirping out hello. They left just before the sun popped out.

I already had my airport bag packed with cameras right next to the arm chair, so had a few cameras to choose from this morning.
