Oh, Canada! Canada Warblers always seem dainty to me. #canadawarbler #warbler #warblers #birding #springmigration #birdphotography #songbirds #centralpark #birdwatching #birdcp #birdcpp #birds #birdphotos #shotoftheday #natgeo #natgeowild #nature #birdpics #bird #urbanbirding

I just love Cedar Waxwings. They don’t have the flashiest coloring, but beautiful, rich, subtle colors finished off by their striking black mask and delightful crest. #cedarwaxwing #bathingbirds #springmigration #birding #LSNY #birds #nyc #nature #birdpics #birdcpp #birdcp

THE OUTSIDERS. An exciting and moving show. Clear storytelling, and one of the most effective and grippingly staged scenes I’ve ever seen, which ended with the audience bursting into a rousing ovation. #outsidersmusical #theoutsiders #broadway #musical #musicals #broadwaymusicals

Northern Waterthrush. These boldly patterned brown and buff birds have bright, cheerful song. #warbler #warblers #birding #birdphotography #songbirds #springmigration #natgeowild #birdwatching #birdcp #birdcpp #birdnerd #birds #birdphotos #nature #urbanbirding #natgeo #LSNY

I didn’t come to Europe to bird, but nearly every bird would be a new life bird. My first morning I went to nearby Parc des Buttes-Chaumont”. It was the right decision, I added 18 new “life birds” to my list! 1. Eurasian Blackbird 2. Common Wood Pigeon 3. Carrion Crow #lifebird

Birds of Paris, vol. 2. One of my first life birds in Paris was pretty cool. The Rose-ringed Parakeet. These gorgeous birds were one of the most common birds in Paris! #lifebird #birding #paris #urbanbirding #birdsofparis #roseringedparakeet #birdsofeurope #europe #europeanbirds

I’ve always loved American Kestrels, so it was thrilling to have my first Eurasian Kestrel fly in and land just above me in beautiful Parc des Buttes-Chaumont in Paris. #eurasiankestrel #lifebird #birding #paris #urbanbirding #birdsofparis #birdsofeurope #europe #europeanbirds

Saw my “lifer” Common Chaffinch in a small city garden near Les Invalides. I saw the male first, then noticed the female and the fledgling they were gathering food for. #lifebird #birding #paris #urbanbirding #birdsofparis #commonchaffinch #birdsofeurope #birdsoffrance #finch

Tits! Another life bird from the city parks of Paris. This is the Great Tit. A beautiful and inquisitive little creature, seemingly always on the move. This fellow had been banded! #lifebird #birding #paris #urbanbirding #birdsofparis #greattit #france #birdsofeurope #bandedbird

More tits! Another life bird from the city parks of Paris. This is the Eurasian Blue Tit. Adorable! #lifebird #birding #paris #urbanbirding #parcdesbutteschaumont #birdsofparis #greattit #tit #france #birdsofeurope #europe #europeanbirds #birdsoffrance #lifer

Another lifer from our time in Paris, and one of the birds I really wanted to see. The European Robin. We were fortunate enough to see many of these delightful songbirds. #lifebird #birding #paris #urbanbirding #birdsofparis #europeanrobin #robin #france #birdsofeurope #lifer

Eurasian Blackcap was another life bird for me and one of the most common birds on our trip. Also one of the most vocal. Their melodious song was heard in every city green space we visited. #lifebird #birding #paris #urbanbirding #birdsofparis #bird #france #birdsofeurope #europe
