WEDNESDAY, APRIL 26:
This morning after an early doctor’s appointment (due to a tick, folks please be careful this year it’s a bad year for ticks! I am totally fine, though), I took advantage of my proximity to Central Park to spend a pleasant morning of birding one of my favorite places!
FIELD SPARROWS are a nice, fairly uncommon migrant in the park:
YELLOW-RUMPED WARBLERS are common but no less appreciated:
My first BLACK-THROATED BLUE WARBLER of the year, a beautiful male!
Warbler season is on for sure! Here’s a BLACK-AND-WHITE:
And vireo season! BLUE-HEADED:
NORTHERN WATERTHRUSH:
This male WHITE-THROATED SPARROW posed beautifully for me!
And though it is *just* a zoo escapee, I will never turn down the chance to photograph Flaco the Eurasian Eagle-Owl — a truly impressive beast!
Bird-of-the-day to the Black-throated Blue Warbler. More migration madness to come!
Happy birding,
Henry
