Title: One of the downtown (Chgo.) birds found injured Post by: dale on 06-Jun-12, 10:08:21 PM http://tinyurl.com/blh3bpm (http://tinyurl.com/blh3bpm)
I don't know which bird it is yet. We have a number of pairs in the area. This is a map of an approximately 5-mile (north to south) area that includes downtown. See how many breeding pairs there are just there? Pretty wild.
