Click on this hyperlink to see haunting pictures by Deborah Allen of the coyote crossing the iced-over reservoir in Central Park last week. Poor thing looks pretty lean and out of his element.
I was alerted about this photo and the first winged migrants of spring–a cheery thought–by Robert DeCandido (who will always be Ranger Bob to me, although he is no longer a park ranger). I’ve gone on many an enchanting bird walk and owl watch with Bob over the years. On the left you’ll see Bob’s photo of a screech owl.
To receive e-mail advisories of his regular bird and owl walks, and a running update about NYC wildlife, pop him an e-mail: rdcny@earthlink.net.
The owl on this post is a Northern Saw-whet, not a screech-owl
