Wow! I finally got a male Scarlet Tanager a couple of weeks ago. Haven't caught a female.
Eckhart Derschmidt11-Jun-2007 23:47
Beautiful, as always. Still impressed by the great number of bird species living in central park, I wonder how many there are in total. (In Vienna's "Birdrace 2006" a total of 108 species were documented)
