We were walking in Central Park Saturday and came across a black crowned night heron. Thanks to your web site I was able to identify him. He was sitting by a small pond not far from the Museum of Natural Sciences and oblivious to all the people. He only stirred when a raccoon came out of the wooded area and started stalking him. Fantastic!

Im kind of new to NY, so this morning jogging by The Ramble I didnt know what to think when I saw an enormous, fat, white bird that was built like an owl but had the head of a hawk. He was sitting high in a tree, while other birds tried to chase him away. When I got home I started googling and found your website. I checked out the owls, and almost thought it was a snowy owl, then I looked in hawks and there he was: it was Pale Male. I guess all the other joggers already knew this local celebrity. I was the only one staring at him in perplexity until he grudgingly flew off toward Fifth Avenue. Your site is fantastic, it a bird identification guide to our little part of the world! I will make use of it regularly. Thanks so much and best wishes to you, H.W. NYC

Cal- I went to your site looking for photos of the Dickcissel, and stumbled on your cats- what a treat! They look quite like a couple of my cats (long deceased). Jack
