Here are the top 4 stories in Reno today:

1. The Washoe County Health District recently announced that it will move the county's vaccine site from Reno-Livestock Events Center (RSLEC) to the health district's clinic located at 1001 E. Ninth Street, Building B. Drive-thru vaccine appointments will be held at RSLEC until Dec. 17 before transitioning to inside the clinic. Hours for the new vaccination location will be during normal clinic hours Mondays through Fridays, and appointments can be made by calling (775) 328-2427. (ThisisReno)
2. An unidentified male victim was critically injured in a shooting on Saturday, which happened after a fight at a party in the 10000 block of Calvary Circle. As of Sunday afternoon, the man was still in critical condition, the Reno Police Department said. Anyone who attended the gathering or who has information on the case should call Detective Ben Rhodes at (775) 657-4506. (KOLO)
3. The hollow PVC pipes that are used to mark mining claims across the West are death traps for nesting birds that get stuck inside them, say Nevada conservationists and state wildlife officials. Cavity nesters — birds that rely on confined spaces for secure breeding grounds — fly into the tubes but cannot escape, and they eventually die from dehydration or starvation. Nevada's Legislature outlawed the tubes a decade ago and authorized the removal of markers people find on public land, but there may still be hundreds of thousands of markers throughout the state. (News 4)
4. Despite the City of Reno's recent purchase of the Lear Theater, the building still appeared on Preserve Nevada's top 11 endangered historic buildings for the second year in a row. (Subscription: ThisisReno)
