Ornithology

Six Canada Geese, (Branta canadensis) out for an afternoon stroll today, Friday, January 22, jaywalking across Monroe Street at Columbus Drive, forcing traffic to stop.

In my mind they have taken over the title of the quintessential urban bird from pigeons (Columba livia) and ring-billed gulls (Larus delawarensis).

They are truly bad-ass birds.
