Deceased. Appears to be a window strike victim. Collected by Calgary Urban Response. Permits in place.
Sleeping (or at least holding completely still) on knapweed, early in the morning.
Divebombed by two grackles while it was trying to eat a small rodent. It had enough after a bit and made some rushes back at them until they stopped. Then it looked at me and went back to eating.
This observation is for the Ring-billed Gulls on the left that are hoping the fish to be shared or stolen. It is a large fish and seems to be a big job for the Herring to keep it in its grips and to keep it from floating down the river.
