Birds on the lake and by the feeders in the Rambles.

Central Park Song Sparrow
This little guy was searching for wet morsels in the little stream.
Central Park Reservoir Birds
After visiting the Ramble we stopped by the Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Reservoir – Wikipedia in Central Park. I wanted to see what winter ducks were there. We didn’t stay long. Here’s a link to a Birding Guide | Central Park Conservancy
Central Park Wren
Carolina wrens – Wikipedia (see habitat en disgtribution section) have been slowly moving north. Years ago I rarely saw one. Now they are common. I love their cheerful “teakettle” song: Carolina Wren Song. In the last photograph the wren’s nictitating membrane – Wikipedia is visible.
Central Park Birds of Winter
The ball of feathers in the first photograph is a great blue heron. I edited the backgrounds in the last three.
Central Park in December
Wintry scenes of the first snow fall of 2025. A surprise was the pretzel bush.
Pine Needles
This reminds my of Ma Rays shadows from his hanger mobile at the Met Museum of Art right now.
Green Flowers
Mostly from the New York Botanical Garden.
