Bonus Commute Bird: This Barn Swallow pretending to be a Black Skimmer #birds 🪶
Good morning! Lately I've been seeing chimney swifts and barn swallows dipping into the water on the Harlem Meer. Are they drinking? Eating water bugs? Bathing? / Buenos días! Últimamente veo golondrinas y vencejos metiéndose en el agua del Harlem Meer. Están comiendo? Bebiendo? Bañándose? #birds 🪶
This other photo from today's commute is not the sharpest but I think it's pretty cool: a Barn Swallow holding a bunch of bugs in its beak, I guess it's preparing a meal for some fledglings! #birds 🪶
Today's Commute Bird: One of the Cedar Waxwings hunting for bugs at the Central Park Pool / Visto hoy de camino al trabajo: uno de los varios ampelis americanos que estaban cazando bichos al vuelo en la Pool de Central Park #birds 🪶
Seen today on my way to work through Central Park: a Red-Tailed Hawk on a light pole being mobbed by a Blue Jay. #birds 🪶
Someone's brother-in-law has a porta-pottie rental business
Here's a closeup of the osprey... It looks like it means business! And check out those claws! #birds 🪶
Good morning! I love ospreys' really looooong wings. This one was flying over the Harlem Meer in Central Park yesterday morning // Buenos días! Me encantan las alas extra-largas de las águilas pescadoras. Ésta estaba sobrevolando el Harlem Meer ayer por la mañana #birds 🪶
It took me a couple of seconds to figure out what was that white spot right under this yellow-rumped warbler 😬 #PhotoFailFriday 🪶 #birds #worstbirdpic
Another Commute Bird from this morning: A Red-Bellied Woodpecker (Carpintero de Carolina) that I guess got tired of pecking wood and switched to berries #birds 🪶

You guys, the White House accidentally ordered 10x the amount of Porta-Potties that they needed. The lawn is just acres of Porta-Potties.
It’s all fenced off and you can’t see, but I took this photo through a hole in the fence netting.
It’s #PhotoFaikFriday!
Pros: Bird is centered and in focus
Cons: Bird turned around and started pooping! 🫢😬😅
