Muscrat
This poor little critter had a badly wounded leg, possibly from a scrap with a Hawk or even a Pike. Suspecting it to be a mother gathering food we opted not to attempt a rescue. Would have ripped our hands off anyway. |

Nest of 5 Purple Finches
Mother finch found a great place near the finch feeded to build her nest - in a 10 inch hanging flower pot of Impatients.
These lucky fellas got a daily dousing of water during the June heatwave until i discovered them. Must have helped - all 5 left the nest healthy 2 weeks later. A rare success for Finches in the downtown core.
See mother finch below.
