As the population of the Northern Virginia suburbs expands, many local fauna have adapted to the expanding human presence. Sightings of foxes, deer, hawks, owls, and other creatures have proliferated in Arlington and the outer suburbs in recent years. This exhibit comprises photographs illustrating this phenomenon.

These photographs were taken in Arlington by Scott Springston and in Great Falls by Kim Abod and Robin Kent.
