These were observed while doing the bird watch lab. They found some food in the chickens feed. Very smooth feathers. Not very fast birds that's how I caught good images.

These were taken near the back road to my sons school. To the right of the road are woods and to the left is a river. I'm thinking it went to get some water and was struck by a vehicle. We see lots of these on the roads.
