A sane society would make an example of people who do things like this
A shocking and terrible wildlife crime: earlier today, I learned from residents of West 75th Street that workers were disassembling the roof of the water tower housing Manhattan’s first barn owl nest in modern history. Cont’d #birdcpp #nature #wildlife

Some Barn Owls continue to be seen tonight on their Upper West Side water tank, on buildings near it, or in flight. An easy way to monitor much of their activity is to watch their YouTube livestream UWSBarnowls filmed from a nearby roof.

I was driving down a busy road today and noticed something unusual on the shoulder. I had to do a U-turn and pull over to take a few pictures.

Size Matters After All—This Yellowlegs shorebird repeatedly tried to swallow its oversized catch, but the fish proved to be a mouthful too many. After several unsuccessful attempts, the shorebird gave up—Huntley Meadows Wetlands, Virginia, USA.

Multiple groups are out around West 75th Street looking for a sight of any of the Barn owls in the aftermath of the water tower roof getting removed earlier today. Nobody has seen them. Vibes are low.

An act of evil was committed today The DEC is currently involved but irreparable damage has been done. The public needs to be a part of the fight for these owls and their future

The world we live in today is infested with a putrid apathy that permeates every facet of modern living. Nothing is scared, despicable.

This is an unbelievable development in the life of this historic nest. Thank you to @nycbirdalliance and @NYSDEC for quickly acting to stop further destruction.
Today the water tank that these five young barn owls called home was disassembled. They no longer have a safe place to roost. Cont’d

The little feathers that stick up on a wild pheasant are called ear tufts. The bird's real ears are small holes hidden beneath its head feathers. These are specialized feathers that the male pheasant can raise when he is alert, excited, or trying to attract a mate.
