I started out in the area called the Oven by the Lake.

Fox Sparrow
American Woodcock.  There were five at the Oven while I was there.

Pale Male being chased by an American Kestrel, who hit him twice.  The Kestrel seems to chase him when he’s around 78th Street.  I spent two hours on Sunday trying to locate the Kestrel without success.
