This clever Red-bellied Woodpecker is "caching" his winter supply of acorns by moving them to smaller holes as they dry and shrink to keep them secure.

A Ring-billed Gull by Swindler’s Cove on the east side of Dykeman Avenue. The city has done a very good job of making a little respite for the birds with a marshy area and a children’s garden from a former illegal dumping ground in Harlem.
