This is a bird we trapped on Westfield Rd after it had
left its nest area. It has disappeared after moving up to Chantilly. It may have
just moved out of the areas where we've been looking for it, or it may have been
hit by a car, the most common cause of mortality in the city birds and one that
the radios don't always survive.
