I used to have a teacher who would drive around in the winter and draw trees from his car. He could see their structure much better then. I'd admired him for going out in the cold of a New England winter drawing a subject he loved: trees.<BR/><BR/>Red-tails are fairly common here. In fact I always have to be very careful driving to work. I see one in the sky about every 3-5 days and can't resist looking, just to make sure it's a red-tail and not something more exotic. But I also don't want to get into an accident so I have to take the briefest of looks! I guess that's the virtue of taking public transportation: you can bird-watch safely....Ken Januskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16984782169460110520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3618025896103645633.post-66209445427252778282008-11-04T11:08:00.000-05:002008-11-04T11:08:00.000-05:00Great shot, Ken!!

We have our local residents in Central park! They've been living above Fifth Avenue for years now. I think they might be 3rd generations now.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
