Matt,

I believe this is the same bird who has been there about two years. He was injured and I don't think he can fly anymore. He was really sick for a while but now is healthy other than flying. I have seen him as far south as broad street and as far north as Lane Avenue. He tends to stay to himself, but near other birds.
