This gorgeous Yellow-bellied Sapsucker was snoozing by three fresh holes he had made in the tree, sipping sap every now and then when there was enough to sip. #birds

Snow in Central Park and bitterly cold!
This beautiful male Yellow-bellied Sapsucker seemed in shock - didn’t move, glued to the tree…

The CBC is over and the House Sparrows won! But there were a great number of raptors in the Park, as well as the Chickadees and Titmice are back. The Pool had this gorgeous American Black Duck socializing with the Mallards! #birds

The 125th annual Christmas Bird Count is happening today! I will be counting in Central Park (it’s 25 deg F out there! 🥶) Still hoping to find a Owl, but maybe a Cooper’s Hawk will have to do. They are fast and slender and can shoot right through dense growth to catch their prey! #birds

There seem to be at least 3 Cooper’s Hawks hanging around Central Park these days. Two immature ones and one adult one today!
Here is the impressive adult: #birds

This Dickcissel has been frequenting an area in Riverside Park called the Drip for about a week now! I paid a visit today and was not disappointed! #birds
