[QUOTE="Pinewood, post: 3655625, member: 10255"] [b]snowy weather[/b] Hello, There was enough snow on Sunday evening to make many of the paths in Central Park to be too icy for me. Today, the major paths were cleared, so I made my usual round except for some of the Ramble. Today, the Reservoir had the usual assortment of waterfowl: American coots, buffleheads, mallards, northern shovellers, ruddy ducks, wood ducks and hooded mergansers. Additionally, there were [B]ringed necked ducks[/B]. Elsewhere, near the frozen Lake were [B]pine siskins[/B]. Last week, I had a truly good look at a[B] northern flicker[/B], which was feeding on the ground near me. I believe that the flicker is the only woodpecker which feeds on the ground. In any case, I had a nice look at its remarkably striking plumage. I add a photograph, taken with my iPod, of two year round park regulars: a [B]mourning dove and a blue jay[/B]. The blue jay is very familiar in the American East but never seen in the far West. Happy bird watching, Arthur :scribe: [/QUOTE]
