Was feeling bored then I saw this and said, "I'll go birding." Where? Good question. Wonder if Verde River is flowing out of Bartlett Lake? May be too late in the day.
In addition to usual habitat, the river is stopover for migrants. Plenty hawks as well. But, still rather warm and early morning best time. It's on the agenda. Bored!
With regard to uptown Manhattan, met a fellow the other day whose grandfather was a stonemason who put The Cloisters together for J.P. Morgan. (Ha, not personally.) Morgan bought the pile of an old monastery in France, had it disassembled, then shipped to a location near the northern tip Manhattan Island alongside the Hudson, parks surrounding and adjacent. Beautiful spot. The grandfather part of the crew who put it back together.

Many walks and bikes around when living nearby in the Bronx but never went into museum. At the time, Inwood neighborhood was still an Irish bastion. The avian art occurring further south, the area has seen waves of immigrants for sure. Nice to see it get spiffed up like.
