Urban Wildlife Watch

Sunday, July 8 - Jogging on the Big Dry Creek Trail, Wadsworth to US-36.
Saw several mallard duck families. Scads of rabbits and prairie dogs. A few cormorants; not sure what variety. Unidentified raptor and a great blue heron. Finally, a coyote trotting just below the railroad tracks parallelling Wadsworth.

Thursday, July 12 - driving down Independence.
Saw a fox crossing the road.

Sunday, July 15 - Jogging on the Big Dry Creek Trail, west of Wadsworth.
The usual ducks, rabbits, and prairie dogs. Saw two black-crowned night herons (http://www.mbr-pwrc.usgs.gov/Infocenter/i2020id.html), assuming I read the field guide correctly.
