Warm, clear day, young catbird looking for food and studying me.
 

Parent dove in nest with nestling.  I don't know if there's a second nestling. View limited.

Yesterday's dead dove is definitely dead. Blow flies feasting.

Leucystic robin,  not painful, just loss of pigmentation, near fountain.

Starling anting.  They always look silly while  aerating.

Mv eye caught movement near front door, biggest rat I've seen in a while, midday.  Naturally I took pictures until it scurried into the bushes. I ran into the lobby to the doormen.  "There's a rat outside. I've got pictures."  They look at pictures and announce, "That's Harry." HARRY???? What??? Harry? Victor previous doorman named him.Victor has been retired at least two years, so Harry has been here for a while. "We've seen him run by the door with a whole slice of pizza."  Okay, does Harry pay rent? Does Harry have a mortgage?  This is New York. anything goes.  We have hawks around here and Harry is still alive. Smart rat.
