A winter wren with its round body and stubby tail is perfect borb material. The Pool, Central Park. 10/26/2025 #birdcpp #BirdsSeenIn2025 #birdphotography

Ruddy ducks are some of the cutest visitors we have to Central Park during the fall/winter months. They are relativelys small and compact, with scoop-shaped bills. They have stiff tails that can be cocked straight up (not in this photo taken recently at the reservoir.) #birdcpp

Northern Shovelers have arrived in Central Park. Their huge spoon-shaped bill always makes me laugh--but it's very effective for filtering tiny crustaceans out of the water. Just look at the size of that thing! 😍😍😍 #Shoveler #CentralPark #birdcpp

Late afternoon light in the winter is awful.  I was left wondering which bird lost its battle with that hawk. So I walked and found its feathers.  RIP Mourning Dove. #birdcpp  #brooklynbirds #bklynbirdclub @birdbrklyn

So that woodpecker was right. I looked around and saw this Red-tailed Hawk right after it caught dinner. Look at those feathers fly! #birdcpp  #brooklynbirds #bklynbirdclub @birdbrklyn

12/1/25 Astoria is flying up early nowadays . It was at 4:54pm today . Glad she’s tucked in safe and sound . Watch her climb higher on her oak tree after her landing . #birdcpp ❤️🦃🙏💤

12/1/25 Astoria asked for water but did not want to leave her garden. She came up with a new way of drinking it . She’s very smart . #birdcpp 💦❤️🦃🙏

12/01/25 I arrived in the Battery to find Astoria in her Carousel garden napping . She got up and wondered why I’m early perhaps. Then she started foraging about . #birdcpp ❤️🦃❤️🙏🍁
