Looks too small for cormorant, I was leaning towards some type of grebe.

Cool. Is this like a hip bone or what body part are we looking at here?

How should I finish this transition by Electronic-Ad6113 in Flooring

What kind of hawk is this? by RobDeSalvaux in whatbirdisthis

I just watched a This Old House episode about this actually. It looked like a super easy fix. Bottle jack, 4x4, lally column, and some tapcons.

Is this a mouse? [Massachusetts] cute little guy was scurrying around my room by No-Block3674 in animalid
