A raven, vocalizing, near St. John the Divine, and three views of a peregrine falcon on Riverside Church in Manhattan. (Aside: falcons used to nest there, but last year there was scaffolding in the way and I haven't seen sign of nesting this year. In fact, this is the first time I've seen a falcon there since February.) #birds#wildlifePhotography#birdCPP
Two shots of a red-bellied woodpecker. The bird was so close that I had to zoom way out to get it all in frame. The second picture is at full zoom (800 mm, since I was using a teleconverter). Also: a male red-winged blackbird. The last picture, taken with my phone at the Harlem Meer, is titled “Reflections on things I cannot see”.
Central Park (again) today: can't a bird take a bath without paparazzi? A grey catbird, a female northern cardinal, and a male scarlet tanager. #birds#wildlifePhotography#birdCPP
