Its not just one black buzzard, I should have mentioned its a flock of 3 or 4 at a time. We have hawks and eagles here too. I saw a large hawk swoop down and while in flight pick up a six foot snake and fly off with it. Almost every yard has a bunny sitting in it. Birds of prey are their only predator since there are no wolves. I have only seen one coyote here which was one helluva one off.

I wish the beavers had right of way but park rangers move them once they start to change the forest to meadow.

For a regular suburban street I am merely yards away from Rock Creek Park which was developed by Theodore Roosevelt.
