In fact, in New York State, other than a small breeding colony west of Rochester, there are very few records of Eurasian Collared-Dove. It was just nice seeing a species of pigeon or dove other than Rock Pigeon or Mourning Dove in New York City. Try to tell me this bird isn’t gorgeous!

In 2007 I was working in a university building that was just begging for bird feeders. “Bird-friendly design” is becoming a common term in architectural and city planning circles and proponents can point to a successful initiative, the retrofitting of New York City’s Javits Center which reduced bird deaths by 90%.

It was weird to think twice about approaching the vegetation-covered edge of an innocuous pond but it only makes sense.

When I first saw the post on the New York State listserv about the Hooded Crow on Staten Island I wasn’t going to twitch it. It had to be an escaped bird or at least one that didn’t make it to the southernmost borough in New York City under its own power but by riding a boat.*
