Not the best birder. Definitely not the best photographer. Usually in Central Park, but will travel for Timberdoodles! Same handle elsewhere.

Overcast and still in Central Park this morning, which enabled me to capture this Great Egret (and its reflection) on the Reservoir! I never tire of photographing these elegant herons!❤️❤️❤️#birdcpp #BirdTwitter

A wide variety of ducks on Central Park's Reservoir this morning, including this stunning Red-breasted Merganser. If you look closely, you can see that it has a serrated bill--useful for catching small fish! 🐟🐟🐟 #Merganser #CentralPark #birdcpp

🎉🎉🎉 It's always a celebration when I see one of Central Park's coyotes! It was casually strolling through the @CentralParkNYC's Nursery early this morning. What a beauty! 🐺🐺🐺 #Coyote #CentralPark #birdcpp

Well, I captured a Red-tailed Hawk diving right at me this morning on Central Park's Harlem Meer. I'm not sure what it was after--the only thing I could see was a Red-winged Blackbird. But it gave me an image I've never captured before! 😍😍😍 #Hawks #CentralPark #birdcpp

@rgfeal It was. I had no idea it would dive-bomb me--it happened so quickly. A little amazed I captured it at all.

@Above96th One of your best! Must be strange to have a hawk dive bomb in your general direction!

A Green-winged Teal swam close at Central Park's Pool, enabling me to get this detailed image of its plumage. Nature is amazing. 💚🤎💚 #Teal #CentralPark #birdcpp

I know there are loads of Sandhill Crane fans out there. You may have never seen a Sandhill Crane next to a Whooping Crane--check out how big the Whooper is! 😍😍😍 #Cranes #Texas #Birding

American Robins have returned to Central Park en masse. Amazingly, there were still some crabapples on the trees, which the Robins very much enjoyed. It's quite remarkable how easily they swallow them whole! 🍒🍒🍒 #Robins #CentralPark #birdcpp

Absolutely magical to see a magnificent Whooping Crane soar directly overhead at sunset. That's a seven-foot wingspan you're looking at! 🤍🖤🤍 #Cranes #Texas #BirdsSeenin2026
