National Pigeon Appreciation Day by Mary Cummins, Animal Advocates

National Pigeon Appreciation Day is celebrated on June 13th to honor pigeons that served in World War I and World War II as messengers and spies, and to challenge the misconception that pigeons are pests and disease-ridden. We've rescued many non-native pigeons including racing, wedding, homing and fancy pigeons. The pigeon sitting on an unfertile egg is Patty Pigeon rescued by Patty Shenker at then Animal Acres which is now Farm Sanctuary in Acton, California. #nationalpigeonappreciationday #pigeon #pigeonlove #pigeonrescue #marycummins #wildliferehabilitation #wildliferhabilitator #wildliferescue #losangeles #california #rockdove #homingpigeon #weddingpigeon #racingpigeon

2024 Bat Roost Count Natural History Museum of Los Angeles by Mary Cummins Animal Advocates

Counting bats for the 2024 bat roost count in Los Angeles with Miguel Ordenana, Amy Jaecker-Jones, Jill Carpenter, Rachel Blakey, Natural History Museum of Los Angeles, North American Bat Monitoring Program, NABat. The roosts are under freeways generally over the Los Angeles River. We count before and after they have their pups. These are obviously crevice bats. There were lots of swifts, bunnies, toads, rats and some homeless people. It was a quiet meditative experience staring quietly at the sky while sitting in the lotus position under the freeway as cars and semis drove above us. #bats #marycummins #mexicnfreetailedbats #californiamyotisbats #losangeles #california #lariver #losangelesriver #freeway #overpass #underpass #maternityroost #batroostcount

A great article about a previous count. I've been counting for the last 12 years with different organizations.
