Sparrow on a stick for #WildlifeWednesday. Soaring into the weekend on #FlybyFriday like ... It's a bird, it's a plane. It's #WildlifeWednesday. A #FoxyFriday cuteness alert! 🦊 We have done an important, essential thing at @seattleaudubon this week: we've gone down the path of removing "Audubon" from our name. Our namesake, John James Audubon, was an enslaver, anti-abolitionist, and purveyor of white-supremacist thinking and actions. We are not trying to erase him, because his art was a contribution people treasure, but we are saying that his name no longer fits what we want to be today and in the future -- which is inclusive, equitable, and antiracist.

Kit at play on #FoxyFriday 🦊 May we all be as adept at entertaining ourselves!
