If in any way related, there was Finns Party event here yesterday. Right foot appears to be broken. Have to check if this is the same one with broken foot that has regularly been around. |

Black Vulture (Coragyps atratus) |
Photos / SoundsWhatEurasian Woodcock (Scolopax rusticola)ObserverkaupunkilinnutDescriptionScavenged by but unlikely brought here by crow. Maybe goshawk prey instead? There was unlikely fieldfare flyby and call last night two hours after dark. By closer look, this was surprisingly small: headless body length roughly 10 cm, longest wing feather 15 cm. |

Photos / SoundsWhatPasserines (Order Passeriformes)ObserverkaupunkilinnutDescriptionCarcass consumed by crow at tree above. https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/198554647 Wondering if there's some similarity to feathers found yesterday late afternoon. https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/198497218 Few hours earlier there was sparrowhawk bypass (at the site where crow carried carcass). EDIT: At site they looked different from house sparrow's, but wondering if they're after all sickness deceased individual that crow had found. EDIT2: Inclined to think they're deceased house sparrow after all, but feather [#5] appeared quite dark while maybe not actually black to be house sparrow's...?? |

Photos / SoundsWhatBohemian Waxwing (Bombycilla garrulus)ObserverkaupunkilinnutDescriptionCan't see clearly but there was at least 200 waxwings arriving to nearby park in the morning in a slightly chaotic manner, and I think this is likely glass collision victim somewhere nearby brought by crow. There was also some waxwing feathers nearby carried by wind which I think are from this carcass. EDIT: Confirmed several collisions yesterday nearby https://yle.fi/a/74-20055220 So this is likely brought here from 500 m NE (Vaasankatu). |

WhatEastern Raccoon (Procyon lotor ssp. lotor)ObserverwhateverwatcherDescriptionOn my way into the park I saw a group of vultures on the ground. When I stopped to investigate, all but one flew off even though I gave them a lot of space and relied on my zoom. They were picking apart an unfortunate raccoon (92430700). There was at least one Black Vulture (the one who braved my presence to keep eating). I think that there were more; several vultures perched in a tree where the lighting was just too lousy to get them. The turkey vultures took to the sky and circled, waiting for me to leave. Which I did, after taking only a few minutes for photos.

I've changed all the interaction field names from "Interaction: " to "Interaction->" to stop them messing with the photo tag processing on photo import. When adding photos already tagged with fields to the "Add an observation" page, it was only grabbing the field name text after the colon and so not working properly.
Everything works now that the colon is gone, so long as you use a recognised taxon name. For example, if I tag a photo on my computer with "Interaction->Visited flower of=Rosmarinus officinalis" and upload it, it will get this field added with the taxon Rosmarinus officinalis.
That can save a lot of time if you''re maintaining your own photo library in your computer and tagging lots of photos there and uploading them all at once.
