They don’t call Dan Rauch “Dan the Bird Man” for nothing. As a DC Department of Energy & Environment wildlife biologist, he’s one of the city’s most prominent animal experts, with a particular focus on the feathered. If you follow the creature beat, you’ve probably seen Rauch’s name in the news—he’s the go-to quote when it comes to viral animal stories that involve bald-eagle feuds or ultra-rare bobcat sightings.
