Keep birding and you might see a White-tailed Kite hovering as it hunts rodents and one of the few Bat Falcons in the Valley might dash into view. I worry because no protection is given to such supposed “trash” habitats. You might hear the prominent notes of a Gray Hawk and Southern Lapwings.

Stroll through the park, which turns out to be at least twice the size I expected it to be, tiny Goldcrests and numerous Long-eared Owls … These owls spend winter roosting in parks where there is no pesticide spraying, supposedly because of larger population of rodents in towns and villages.

Notably, this is a vey small number compared to the number of rodents killed by the same cats. I would be they are in less environmentally backwards states (and I say that with some authority having done EIS work in several states … Minnesota is the wild west when it comes to environmental protection).
