It can't be an albatross....
Hello, today I saw a large bird flying over the lake at my local state park. The black and white wings were narrow and angled like an albatross and the bird was larger than the osprey I had just witnessed. It disappeared before I could get a better view in my binoculars. But I am in Pennsylvania...- dizzynerd529

What is this?
What kind of crab is this (or is it a mouse?), I am assuming it is a crab because it moved like a crab. It was about six inches across and I suspect it has been eating pigeons in my yard. It secreted red liquid, but flew away before I could get another picture.- Oakdryad5
