Crow on tree branch, "panting" with beak open

It's a hot one today in Seattle! If you can, please put out water for our wildlife friends. This crow was taking a break in one of my redwoods before hopping down to the deck for some fresh water. 🪶 #birdsofwestseattle

Spotted this song sparrow singing loudly this morning at a little free library in my neighborhood. Maybe it found some bookworms? 📚🐛 🪶 #birdsofwestseattle #fauntleroy
