Lighthearted funny moment on the NY Public Library terraced plaza: While Peter, Bobbie, and Dennis sat around one of the tables (near where the Yellow-breasted Chat initially was spotted), waiting for the Chat to reappear, a middle aged photographer with his two students approached us trio of birders and asked , " "are you birders?"... Dennis says: "no we're just here for a chat". :>
NY Public Library Xmas tree Yellow-breasted Chat last perched in before group departed. A "Smart Bird"
A "field book" of day (or occasional weekend)sightings of previous field trips led by skilled leaders to various habitats and locales within and beyond Brooklyn and NYC boundaries. Founded in 1909 , BBC Birding has provided enjoyment for over 100 years!
