Sunday Birding
On Sunday, I had a relaxed day of birding. Here are the highlights of my day.
Saturday, 4-29-06
Our gray morph West Side owl may have moved to the Ramble, in an area that used to be the territory of the now deceased red morph owl. This makes it possible, that given the autopsy results of the red morph, which cited cause of death as an attack by a raptor, that the Eastern Screech-Owl in the Ramble was the red morph’s killer. This story continues to have unexpected twists and turns.
Fly out (or it now fly off, now that the owl is sleeping out in the open) was at 8 p.m. sharp.
Warbling Vireo
On a quiet Saturday morning in the Ramble, I got another new bird for my Central Park list, a Warbling Vireo.
After Work Birding In The Ramble
A spring migrant, a summer breeder and a year round-inhabitant…
Lesser Scaup
The light wasn’t that great at 7:00 p.m. but I got my first photographs of a Lesser Scaup on Wednesday. The 117th bird species I’ve photographed, and the 131st I’ve seen in Central Park.
Sunday After The Rain
Sunday afternoon the rain finally let up for a bit. The light was difficult and I missed getting a photograph of a Yellow Warbler up in the North Woods.
