I’ve ended up seeing even more wildlife in the city than I did on my hike (maybe due to the animals being less wary of humans) and there are so many different types of birds and critters unlike what we find in the Seattle area that I thought it was worth a post.
Below are the birds and animals I’ve encountered so far – hopefully I will update with more birds and animals as I see them this week!
