10,000 Birds

Let’s say you’re at a fast food restaurant and you have a few french fries left over and a gull is eagerly staring at you and the fries. And if you have a small kid and are in the vicinity of some ducks and geese? In my neighborhood and across New York City, there are quite a few places with signs like the one above.

I had to content myself with my first Black-capped Chickadees for the year in New York, though the American Bittern I inadvertently flushed was nice as well. We made a fast-food stop before finally making our way to Shinnecock Inlet where a Snowy Owl had been around for days and we also hoped to find other good birds in the inlet.

En route to our next stop we slowed down next to a park and spotted the now countable Egyptian Geese. And could we just do a quick drive through at a fast food joint? We had to eat some wonderfully prepared Lebanese food including some outstanding hummus. Only one cuckoo? Of course not! Sneakily prepared, that Carlos.
