Tanagers

I had stopped down by the river to check on the hawk family. There are three babies, but still too hard to see through the leaves. I'll return in about three weeks by which time the nestlings should be big.


On to Central Park. Thrill time. There were two scarlet tanagers dining and bathing. My lens is too powerful to get both in one shot. This is one of those oh-my-God birds.






I'm hoping to find a termite hatchout. With all the birds in town a hatching should draw a mob of hungry birds.
