Urban Cockatoo, had been in a group feeding from petrol station dumpster before moving to the telephone line.
rather comical positioning :P
ID help requested: obviously a rabbit, probably Eastern Cottontail (Sylvilagus floridanus), but possibly New England Cottontail (S. transitionalis) or even European Rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus) which also occur in Maryland. Seen in the Oceanside Campground area at Assateague Island National Seashore. Photo ref.: D066011f (cropped and resolution reduced for web use)
Laughing Gull (Leucophaeus atricilla) photo ref.: Gull,Laughing_Assateague,MD_©DaveSpier_D065889flickr (cropped and then resolution reduced for faster web use). Species profile at www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Laughing_Gull/id [Added to the Maryland Biodiversity Project, although what they REALLY need now are unusual species, especially insects, invertebrates, plants, fungi, etc.]
