Harper's Pitcher Plant (Sarracenia × harperi)Observer
katbrun77Description
Lots of S. flava and minor in close proximity. Only 2 or 3 plants had these uniquely shaped pitchers that were more "open". Could this possibly be a hybrid between the two? No S. rubra observed at this site.

Bald Eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus)Observer
harpercm3Description
I am extremely confident that this was NOT a bald eagle, red-shouldered hawk, or turkey/black vulture based on the direct underside view I had of the bird directly before taking these pictures. My thought is a nighthawk or an owl.
