Cat TV is a great way to keep your feline friend entertained. What is cat TV? It is a window that your cat can look out and watch the local flora and fauna. Cats in high rise buildings rarely get to see birds up close, but this one got a special treat. A woodpecker flew right up to the window of a Chicago apartment.
A woodpecker came to visit my cat and I in downtown Chicago!!! I've seen more bird species all over the city in the past week than ever before. pic.twitter.com/mjpzGesXhR

Do you have a photo or video of an urban species doing something unusual? What about a rare plant or animal that you were surprised to find in a city? If so, let Lindsay know or Tweet at us and you could be featured as a future observation of the week!
I am interested in urban ecology and evolution. Urbanization can have drastic impacts on local ecosystems, both negative and positive, and creates a new environment for organisms to experience. To understand the impacts that urbanization plays on organisms, I look through the lense of population genetics and molecular evolution.
