Heading home from work I saw an owl and got some bigfoot-tier pictures of blurs that might be an owl, I'll post them later. Here's a thing from another thread that involves birds.

I found this lil guy stuck in a tent flying wall to wall trying to get out. I opened the door nice and wide but he still wouldn't fly out so I snatched him up and put him outside. He stuck around for a little bit and I got to pet him on his little head before he flew off. I love animals.
 
Sparkling Violetear and Brown Violetear humming birds have barbs on their beaks. Some humming bird beaks have hooks at the end.

*More a bird fact, but I think it's relevant.
 
Just had an acorn woodpecker come in to the clinic with some foot injuries. He's well enough to have an attitude so he'll be a short-term patient. I got to help hold him during intake, draw up some meds for him, and made a little enclosure. He's so pretty and soft.

We also have one of these dudes:

It's a common poorwill, which I *might* have seen in the wild before. They're nocturnal and eat insects, it's not unlikely to mistake one for a bat in the dark. Ours is very pretty and blends in almost perfectly to the log he's on.
