this little pal was kind of dazed after flying into the window but we are hoping they are ok, last I saw they were in a box on the way to sfacc. spotted in downtown san francisco, probably not their native habitat I am guessing
picture's not great but can anyone id our friend here? someone on scene said snowy plover but I have no idea what their avian credentials were
@Satsuma@glitch.cat.family my first thought was kiwi but I am pretty sure we don't have those here
@pagrus yeah it’d be pretty far from home if it were one! they are roughly chicken sized though, which would rule out pretty much every other option haha
@Satsuma@glitch.cat.family haha I had no idea, I thought they were much smaller
@pagrus yeah they are tiny compared to their nearest relatives (emus, ostriches, etc) but really still quite large!
@Satsuma@glitch.cat.family oh haha I didn't even look at pictures, I just assumed they were wrong. the coloring on this lil pecker was definitely darker
