During lunch I spotted the Plaza Male flying in circles a few times above 5th Avenue and Central Park’s Grand Army Plaza:
He perched on his favorite building perch of late:
He was on his own and staying put so I went to the park’s pond to see the water fowl.
I got some neat shots of the park’s Mallards I will have to post in the near future.
After work I visited Washington Square Park to check on Bobby and Rosie.
I was surprised to see an Osprey flying in sweeping, fairly low circles above the northern border of the park!
It was gone after a few seconds unfortunately.
Yellow-bellied Sapsuckers were exploring a tree together:
Bobby arrived at the park from the east. He landed on the closest flag pole to the nest.
Returning to the same pole:
He sat and preened for close to forty five minutes before flying to a mystery roost for the night.
