Field Notes

Description:

Wild bird flying around in the city suburbs.

Habitat:

This bird and its mate flew very close over my head, while I was taking a photo of a flower, it landed in my back yard and I noticed it had a injury to its leg, but was able to fly and pick bugs out of the grass. It has blue eyes.
