Thanks Elsa!
Beautiful shot Neil! I have herp a challenge for you - what is this behaviour about? http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/200...
Thanks John! I guess people occasionally leave bird seed on these fence posts in Brooklyn's Prospect Park, which made it much easier for me to snap this pic. :)
Hey Noel - thanks!
