AN ENGLISHWOMAN IN NEW YORK
As a present for a ‘Milestone’ birthday, our elder daughter took Ann for a long weekend in New York. They managed a couple of hours birding in the snow in Central Park, and among the birds they saw were Northern Cardinal, Blue Jay, American Robins, Red-bellied Woodpecker, House Sparrow, another Sparrow species which they’re still trying to identify, Starling, and a Pintail among the Mallards.
On a boat trip around the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island they saw Greater Black-backed, Herring and Ring-billed Gulls and Brants.
