Bronx Brendan and I left our usual haunts at Pelham Bay Park in the Bronx yesterday morning and traveled north to Croton Point Park. Highlights were several Bald Eagles, both perched and overhead, a Long-eared Owl, Eastern Meadowlarks and two male Northern Harriers working the former landfill.
Many of the usual winter species were around: Juncos, Titmouse, Chickadees, WB Nuthatch, Red-tailed Hawks, Savannah, Song and Tree Sparrows, RC Kinglet, Brown Creepers, Turkey Vultures and Cedar Waxwings. On the water we could only find Bufflehead.
